Abstract

The potential growth of applications distributed over a network and the large number of users has created the need for an infrastructure which can support increasing interaction among such users and applications. In this environment a scalable solution is needed. This problem known as application integration is addressed in this chapter, and it is combined with Semantic Web technology. After introducing the different techniques to overcome the application integration challenge current trends in Semantic Web Services are discussed and the most recent R&D projects and a selection of available tools are presented. Also discussed is the use of ESB as a suitable mechanism to deploy Semantic Web Services.
