Abstract
In today's business environment, the business offers have an inevitable importance in giving the buyer the most profitable deal. In order to improve the business, the service providers attract the customers by advertising a lot of attractive offers. There is a need for the selection mechanism which accepts the requester's various requirements on business offers to find the most profitable service. In this paper, we identify various business offers of service providers in e-business domain and broadly classify them based on requester's point of view as, unconditional business offers, conditional business offers and probabilistic business offers. We also provide a vocabulary for various business offers of service providers. The paper explores different types of requester's requirements on business offers and proposes a language to express such requirements on various business offers. We propose a tree structure to represent requester's complex business offer requirements for the business offer driven Web service selection.
