Abstract :
Formalization of process behavior is a key issue for semantic Web services. However, this bears the disadvantage of clumsy specifications. In this paper we introduce a Petri net based approach to capture the semantics of Web services. It offers a visual modeling technique and means of refinement and composition. The model is very formal allowing for a clear specification of the semantics a process has. We combine ideas from the Petri net community with ideas from the description logic area focusing on ontologies
