Abstract

Example implementations relate to a system for selecting a provider service that fulfills a specification of a service request. The system includes a storage unit, a transformer unit, and a selection unit. The storage unit is configured to store a generic contract that is a concept of an ontology and a provider sub-concept that is a further concept of the ontology and a sub-concept of the generic contract. The provider sub-concept represents the provider service. The transformer unit is configured to transform the service request to a request sub-concept that is a concept of the ontology and a sub-concept of the generic contract. The selection unit is configured to select the provider service in case that the request sub-concept is a sub-concept of the provider sub-concept.
