The global trend towards more flexible and dynamic business process integration and automation has led to a convergence of interests between service-oriented computing, semantic technology, and intelligent multiagent systems. In particular the areas of service-oriented computing and semantic technology offer much interest to the multiagent system community, including similarities in system architectures and provision processes, powerful tools, and the focus on issues such as quality of service, security, and reliability. Similarly, techniques developed in the multiagent systems and semantic technology promise to have a strong impact on the fast-growing service-oriented computing technology.Service-oriented computing has emerged as an established paradigm for distributed computing and e-business processing. It utilizes services as fundamental building blocks to enable the development of agile networks of collaborating business applications distributed within and across organizational boundaries. Services are self-contained, platform-independent software components that can be described, published, discovered, orchestrated, and deployed for the purpose of developing distributed applications across large heterogeneous networks such as the Internet.
