Seminar: Advanced Topics in Services Computing

Seminar an der Universität des Saarlandes, FR 6.2 Informatik, LVst 98621

The following list of topics for the seminar is structured into the categories of discovery and composition of web services and semantic web services. Selected surveys of relevant fields are indicated and expected to be read by registered participants, as appropriate, before the presentations on the special topics in the respective category start.

The background literature and all papers listed below for the topics are available online in the Web.

Topics which have been CURRENTLY ASSIGNED to participants for presentation at the seminar are MARKED IN RED (current status: 4/14 slots are assigned). Please also check the seminar schedule.
