N2 - Applications based on Web service technology have grown rapidly and it has become more and more necessary to select appropriate services. Semantic information and QoS (Quality of Service) are important to choose appropriate services. Since it is hard to match a user's needs with only a single Web service, the composition of Web services based on workflows is required. To achieve this composition, we utilized our prior research, which suggested that a framework can support a single-service selection based on QoS properties. In this paper, we propose a framework that supports a Web service composition based on semantic information and QoS properties. Three additional elements are extended and added to the prior one: A Broker Agent, a Composition Server and a Composition Agent. This framework is independent of specific composition algorithm. Furthermore, dynamic aspects are considered and supported by a Composition Agent in this framework, which enables a requester to work smoothly with a few loads.
