I glanced at this paper, here's my basic understanding:

Given an end goal, and a list of web-services, automatically compose the data "piping" required to reach the end goal. Do all of this using AI.

Can someone confirm this? If so that's pretty amazing and I will be giving this topic a deeper look.

It requires the OWL-S semantic annotations to be there in the first place unfortunately. Personally I have a hope that formal services will have some kind of buy-in to the semantic trends, way more than regular websites.
