Jos de Bruijn, Rubén Lara, Sinuhé Arroyo, Juan Miguel Gomez, Sung-Kook Han, and Dieter Fensel. A unified semantic web services architecture based on WSMF and UPML. International Journal on Web Engineering Technology, 2(2-3):148-180, 2005.

Current efforts in Semantic Web Services lack reusability and often lack a clear separation between Web services and user goals. We propose a unified architecture based on the principles of the Web Services Modeling Framework WSMF together with the Unified Problem-Solving Method Development Language UPML in order to make the vision of reusable Semantic Web Services a reality. We reuse the concept of a task- and domain-independent Problem-Solving-Method to introduce goal- and domain-independent Web services, organized in Web Service Libraries. Reuse is achieved through the use of bridges and refiners for goal, Web service and domain descriptions. A conceptual agent architecture combines these descriptions in order to achieve user goals with reusable Semantic Web Services.
