A framework for web services composition

Web services composition has been the area of research for a long time and still work is going on in this area. With the widespread use of cloud, Service oriented architecture and hence use of web services has increased enormously. In today´s world of B2B integration web services composition is inevitable and so is the need for effective algorithms or techniques for run time composition. There have been various approaches suggested for compositions and broadly we can categorize these approaches as static or dynamic. Another classification is manual, automatic or semiautomatic composition. Centralized verses distributed composition is yet another way of classification. We propose a framework for dynamic web services composition that combines the capabilities of distributed agent based composition and the middleware. The framework can be used for services registration, composition and execution.
