		<project:description><![CDATA[Colleagues at Fujitsu's FLACP have implemented a very interesting
envinment that they call "Task Computing Environment" (TCE) that uses
standard Semantic Web (RDF, OWL, DAML-S) and Web Services (SOAP, WSDL)
technology to define, disconver, compose and deliver services.  Their
original vision was to use TCE to provide services in a pervasive
computing environment, but the framework and approach work equally
well for services in a wired environment.  

<p>

A good project would be to integrate TCE into a web site like the <a
href="https://ebiquity.com">ebiquity</a> group's site.  Visitors could
go to https://ebiquity.com/services/ and see various services that
could be invoked or downloaded.  Downloading a service means that the
service description (using OWL and WSDL) is copied and installed in
the TCE engine on the user's computer.  That service is then available
to the user for furure use.
