Abstract: An ontology-based ad hoc service discovery system includes a local service cache, a cache manager, a service description unit, a query processor, a service semantic inference unit and a node daemon. The local service cache restores a service ontology by collecting class information of all services advertised on an ad hoc network and stores the service ontology. The cache manager manages the local service cache and performs various preset operations on the cache. The service description unit stores a description of a corresponding service for use in initializing the local service cache. The query processor starts performing a semantic based service query protocol by receiving a service query from a user or an application program. The service semantic inference unit inspects whether the service query transmitted from a client is coincident with the content of the service. The node daemon performs a service cache synchronization protocol with neighboring nodes.
