Abstract Context around service itself and user is one of the most significant factors for semantic Web service discovery. Aiming at the drawbacks of the existing discovery approaches, a semantic Web service discovery based on context and action reasoning is proposed. An action-based context model is built to characterize the static and the dynamic context of Web services. And the action reasoning mechanism in dynamic description logic is used to realize context reasoning. Then, a context-aware discovering algorithm is implemented. The case study and the related work comparison show that the proposed approach has better performance on both context characterization and reasoning. Moreover, the results of experimental evaluation show that the proposed approach provides appropriate results of service discovery for user while reasonable time cost and space cost of logic reasoning are added.
