Ontology evaluation has become an important aspect for selecting suitable ontology to be used within a system. User such as services provider has been proposed with variety of methodology to help in selecting ontology from the Web. Ontology has been used by service providers to describe the semantic part of their web services profile. Evaluating domain ontology for semantic Web services descriptions is currently in its early phase. Moreover the building of domain ontology itself requires greater attention because the ontological element for semantic web services description is not standardized in the current knowledge and thus requiring further refinement. There are studies conducted on transforming Web Services Description Language (WSDL) format into Ontology Web Language for Services (OWL-S) types of ontology to improve the services discovery. But since then, the ontologies were stored and retrieve locally, as well as ranked based on its history of selection or popularity. Criteria for ontology evaluation were then proposed to help users to select the suitable ontology to describe their web services description by achieving certain criteria measurement. By far, the users have problems because the current WSDL description does not signify the services profile. Hence, our study proposes an ontology called OntoUji, which will be used within the process of domain ontology evaluation to suit the required description of semantic web services.Â
