Abstract
In this paper, we describe a Web services recommendation approach where the services’ ecosystem is represented as a heterogeneous multigraph, and edges may have different semantics. The recommendation process relies on clustering techniques to suggest services “of interest” to a user. Our approach has been implemented as a tool called WesReG (Web services Recommendation with Graphs) on top of Neo4j and its cypher query language. We present the system implementation details and present the results of experiments on a collection of real Web services.
