Abstract :
With the development of Internet, there are more and more Web service related to the travel. How to make these Web services work cooperatively so as to provide the travel schedule that satisfy the user ´s requirement is the problem of the process study. In this paper, we propose a new process model facing individuals with travel as background. A new semantic description model is firstly put forward. Furthermore, we provide a method with which available services can be chosen and travel schedule automatically generated according to user ´s requirements. The feasibility of this method is verified through its application to virtual travel agency.
