Web services are in the midst of making the transition from being a promising technology to being widely used in the industry.
However, most efforts to use Web services have been manual, thus slowing down the ever changing and dynamic businesses of
today. In this paper, we contend that more expressive descriptions of Web services will lead to greater automation and thus
provide more agility to businesses. We present the METEOR-S front-end tools for source code annotation and semantic Web service
description generation. We also present WSDL-S, a language created for incorporating semantic descriptions in the industry
wide accepted WSDL, by extending WSDL 2.0.
