Engineering a brokering framework for providing semantic services to agents on lightweight devices

Summarization: This paper describes an approach towards allowing lightweight nomad devices like mobile phones to access semantic services that have either been advertised by agents or follow the semantic web services paradigm. The limitations of lightweight devices like lack of capability to process XML documents or to deal with complex data types and perform computationally demanding tasks are overcome by using this approach. Thus, we consider that when a user or agent is in a nomad or mobile context this approach can aid him in searching for and acquiring simple or complex - added value services from the web.Presented on
