  <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.

We propose ontologies to annotate OWL-S input and output parameters with respect to their security characteristics, including encryption and digital signatures.
