Abstract

Due to the increase of published Web Services (WSs), finding the suitable WS that satisfies the user goals among discovered WSs still needs deep investigations. Certainly, QoS requirements represent a more appropriate and decisive factor to distinguish similar WSs. A lot of research efforts in this direction have been made but are still limited due to the complexity and diversity of QoS constraints. The novelty of our approach lies in its simplicity since it is based on WS Popularity Score (WSPS). This score is computed using an algorithm based on both user's requirements and quality measures of each discovered WSs such as pertinence, age, frequency, etc. The paper reports a validation of the proposed algorithm, its implementation and evaluation trough Information Extraction (IE), in order to illustrate, and assess the convenience of our approach.
