Abstract
To begin with, the semantic web service adaptation is based on the addition of contextual information to this web service description. So the technique of adapting the web service allows the user to establish reusable, interoperable, flexible and context-aware applications. The basic feature of the pervasive applications is the context-awareness. What is more, the pervasive systems are based on the NNN paradigm (aNywhere, aNytime, with aNything). Therefore, these systems must be used in different contexts depending on the user environment, his profile and the used terminal. Indeed, this type of system is dynamically adapted. Furthermore, we seek to offer a dynamic description of the web services. This objective, however, can be achieved by adding contextual information structures to the web service description. In the literature, more research works strive to combine the contextual description with the web service description by using the OWL-S structure. In fact, the main objective of this paper is to propose structures with two levels for the contextual description of the pervasive system. The first level is used to select the adapted web service to respond to the users needs, while the second level is aimed to offer the user the adapted description to respond to these needs.
