Abstract
Abstract. Service Oriented Architecture promises the reuse of services. We recognized in an early stage of our SOA project, the gap between technical and semantical reuse of services. Thus, an agile Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) needs to be supported by ontologies. In this paper we introduce our real-life project and some already available results. We present a new 4-tier architecture to support Web services integration in semantic service oriented paradigm. The proposed 4-tier architecture is result of differentiation between architectural components (services) and those components that interact with services (orchestration). There is a further need for applying ontologies in order to describe services. Our research is based on a real-life project that measures the maturity of SOA and proves the need of semantics. 1
