  Abstract &
  Background
Current infrastructure of Web services discovery such as UDDI provides text and taxonomy based search capabilities. With the large growth in number of Web services, the current Web service discovery mechanism becomes inefficient. Ontology and similarity based discovery or matching of services is a promising approach to address this challenge. This paper proposes Web service ontology and indicates several approaches to measuring similarity on this ontology. The method based on similarity of words which can be estimated in two ways is discussed in detail. This approach used in project will significantly improve Web services discovery.
