The work in this paper addresses the problem by proposing various approaches for handling the state-space exploration, including (i) an introduction of an LTS-based model known as LTS4WS, which can avoid generating full schema of Web service composition and allow on-the-fly verification on the state space; (ii) heuristics strategies to find the best potential composition, and (iii) a bitwise-based indexing mechanism for fast location of suitable Web services. | A bitwise-based indexing and heuristic-driven on-the-fly approach for Web service composition and verification
