UDDI Rated Web Services

Service-oriented computing is gaining momentum. Now-a-days web services are geared up to occupy center stage as part of this adoption. In this new paradigm, existing business logic would be wrapped as web services to be accessible on the web. As the number of web services is expected to significantly increase, this would have the effect of introducing competition among web services that offer similar functionalities. Selection of best service based on their expected quality such as price, response time has more importance. Sound framework is essential to organize web services. The identified key challenges are publishing of service QoS information, the matching of QoS requirements. A model for web services discovery is proposed as a solution. The discovery agent finds services that best meet a consumer´s QoS and rating requirements that are specified in a discovery request.
