These specifications are an evolving extension of services' description with semantic web facilitators for P2P\u2010based e\u2010services.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Findings<\/jats:title><jats:p>It has been demonstrated that the QoS\u2010OWL approach can be effectively used to describe and exploit e\u2010services, particularly in a decentralised environment. QoS\u2010OWL is also able to provide the deliberation of geographic information for e\u2010services, and facilitates the peers' effective cooperation and automates business processes. It is recommended that the approach be adopted in the dynamic online information system environment to increase efficiency and reduce costs in running e\u2010services.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Practical implications<\/jats:title><jats:p>The QoS attributes discussed in this paper are relatively typical for benchmarking purposes, so the extension of the QoS metrics specifications and related protocols need to be discussed in future work.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Originality\/value<\/jats:title><jats:p>The authors propose an approach to dynamically selecting appropriate service\u2010oriented peers in a P2P network, where the composition of e\u2010services in a business process can be enhanced significantly. The approach is based on ontology and QoS perspectives, and the descriptions of services have rich semantic features in an attempt to make the service selection more intelligent and reliable. Therefore the proposal offers e\u2010service providers innovative initiatives to re\u2010engineer their business services.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/14684520810879809","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,5,4]],"date-time":"2008-05-04T08:08:33Z","timestamp":1209888513000},"page":"163-178","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Mining e\u2010services in P2P\u2010based workflow enactments"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"Shuai","family":"Yuan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jun","family":"Shen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"key":"key2022032220142857400_b1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Ankolekar, A., Burstein, M., Hobbs, J.R., Lassila, O., Martin, D.L. and McDermott, D.
