Abstract: Provided are a method and system for modeling a service using a Bayesian network and status information in a distributed environment. The method includes creating a scenario for modeling at least one service, categorizing the service into models according to properties based on the scenario, setting interrelationships including a chronological relationship, a hierarchical relationship, and correlation between the categorized models, and deriving information including a service goal and status information with respect to the models and completing service modeling. Accordingly, a service provider, which digitally provides various services in a ubiquitous environment, can efficiently and actively provide intelligent services. In addition, since a specific method of modeling a service based on probabilities is provided, an intelligent service is modeled efficiently and diversely.
