The Semantic Web Services Initiative Architecture (SWSA) committee has created a set of architectural and protocol abstractions as a foundation for Semantic Web service technologies. This article summarizes the committee's findings, emphasizing its review of requirements gathered from several different environments. The authors also identify the scope and potential requirements for a Semantic Web services architecture. In this article, we describe the protocols exchanged between the interacting entities or agents that interpret and reason with semantic descriptions in the deployment of Semantic Web services. We focus specifically on those capabilities that extend the potential range of Web services; we also discuss security, reliability, and a flexible means of recovery from the problems that can occur in open and evolving environments. The SWSA architectural framework attempts to address five classes of Semantic Web agent requirements — dynamic service discovery, service engagement, service process enactment and management, community support services, and quality of service (QoS) — which we cover in detail here as well
