We present an approach to hybrid semantic Web service matching that complements logic
based reasoning with approximate matching based on syntactic IR based similarity
computations. The hybrid matchmaker, called OWLS-MX, applies this approach to services
and requests specified in OWL-S. Experimental results of measuring performance and
scalability of different variants of OWLS-MX show that under certain constraints logic based
only approaches to OWL-S service I/O matching can be significantly outperformed by hybrid …
