Abstract

An evolutionary process designed to optimize dynamic composition of web service components is proposed. The solution proposed in this paper applies evolutionary computing techniques to automatically select optimal combinations of web service components from available component repositories. Use of the process is illustrated with a computational simulation for optimal component selection.
