由於網路的普及，國內旅遊業者大都有建置本身的網站，以提供旅遊行程資訊。然而，目前國內尚無完善的網站整合各家旅遊業者所提供的行程訊息，以致消費者通常要花費很多時間去搜尋、比較各家旅遊業者所推出的旅遊行程。為了解決此一問題，我們利用語意網路服務(Semantic Web Services)技術來整合各家旅遊業者所提供的旅遊行程訊息，開發出一個基於知識本體(Ontology)之旅遊行程語意網路服務系統(Semantic Web Service System for Travel Journey, SWSSTJ)。在SWSSTJ系統中，我們利用OWL-S(Ontology Web Language for Service，網路服務知識本體描述語言)來描述網路服務的知識本體，以達到網路服務自動化搜尋與調用的能力。另外，我們藉由推論引擎(Inference Engine)和匹配器(Matchmaker)來提升資訊檢索的效率與準確性，並且由OWL-S虛擬機器(Virtual Machine)來達到自動調用的功能，以便讓網路服務更為人性化。 Since the Internet is popular, most tourism enterprises construct their own websites to offer the travel journey information. At present, however, there is no complete website to combine the journey information of every tourism enterprise. This problem causes consumers usually to spend much of time for searching and comparing the travel journey information. In order to solve this problem, we develop a system based on the Ontology and Semantic Web Services to integrate travel journey information which is provided by every tourism enterprise. We call this system as a Semantic Web Service System for Travel Journey (SWSSTJ). In SWSSTJ, we use Ontology Web Language for Service(OWL-S) to describe the Web Service Ontology for reaching automatic discovery and enactment Web Services. The Inference Engine and Matchmaker are used to increase the efficiency and accuracy of information retrieval. In addition, The OWL-S Virtual Machine is employed to reach the automatic enactment for promoting the personalization of Web Services.
