Overview of the S3 Contest: Performance Evaluation of Semantic Service Matchmakers

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Semantic Web Services

Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of the organization and latest results of the international contest series on semantic service selection (S3). In particular, we introduce its publicly available S3 evaluation framework including the standard OWL-S and SAWSDL service retrieval test collections OWLS-TC and SAWSDL-TC as well as its retrieval performance evaluation tool SME2. Further, we classify and present representative examples of Semantic Web service matchmakers which participated in the S3 contest from 2007 to 2010. Eventually, we present and discuss selected results of the comparative experimental performance evaluation of all matchmakers that have been contested in the past editions of the S3 series.
