Semantic Web Service Discovery Data Set (SWS Discovery Data Set for brevity) is a set of Semantic Web Services described by the use of a DL-based framework proposed by Grimm et al. [1].

SWS Discovery Data Set consists of an ALC ontology, representing the knowledge base of reference, and a set of ALE(T) service descriptions, namely descriptions in which concepts defined in the ALC knowledge base can be used. The ontology models broad domains: bank domain, post domain, means of communication domain and geographical information. On the ground of such an ontology, 96 complex concept descriptions acting as service descriptions have been built. The ontology and the service descriptions have been inspired by OWLS-TC that is a service retrieval test collection consisting of services described by means of OWL-S 1.1.

SWS Discovery Data Set has been used as test collection for performing a clustering-based service discovery process [2].
