TL;DR: This presentation complements an earlier foundational article, “The Anatomy of the Grid,” by describing how Grid mechanisms can implement a service-oriented architecture, explaining how Grid functionality can be incorporated into a Web services framework, and illustrating how the architecture can be applied within commercial computing as a basis for distributed system integration.
Abstract: In both e-business and e-science, we often need to integrate services across distributed, heterogeneous, dynamic “virtual organizations” formed from the disparate resources within a single enterprise and/or from external resource sharing and service provider relationships. This integration can be technically challenging because of the need to achieve various qualities of service when running on top of different native platforms. We present an Open Grid Services Architecture that addresses these challenges. Building on concepts and technologies from the Grid and Web services communities, this architecture defines a uniform exposed service semantics (the Grid service); defines standard mechanisms for creating, naming, and discovering transient Grid service instances; provides location transparency and multiple protocol bindings for service instances; and supports integration with underlying native platform facilities. The Open Grid Services Architecture also defines, in terms of Web Services Description Language (WSDL) interfaces and associated conventions, mechanisms required for creating and composing sophisticated distributed systems, including lifetime management, change management, and notification. Service bindings can support reliable invocation, authentication, authorization, and delegation, if required. Our presentation complements an earlier foundational article, “The Anatomy of the Grid,” by describing how Grid mechanisms can implement a service-oriented architecture, explaining how Grid functionality can be incorporated into a Web services framework, and illustrating how our architecture can be applied within commercial computing as a basis for distributed system integration—within and across organizational domains.

TL;DR: This specification defines the core language which can be used to describe Web services based on an abstract model of what the service offers, and defines the conformance criteria for documents in this language.
Abstract: This document describes the Web Services Description Language Version 2.0 (WSDL 2.0), an XML language for describing Web services. This specification defines the core language which can be used to describe Web services based on an abstract model of what the service offers. It also defines the conformance criteria for documents in this language.

TL;DR: In this article, a WSDL (Web Services Description Language) language is used to describe capabilities of one or several web services capable of interacting with a program on the automation equipment.
Abstract: Communication system on an IP network between automation equipment capable of executing at least one program to provide automation functions and one or more remote items of equipment executing one or several computer applications. The communication system conforms with the WSDL (Web Services Description Language) language and provides monitoring, display, control, configuration or programming functions of the automation equipment to remote equipment. The communication system uses at least one service description document that conforms with the WSDL language accessible through a URL address and that describes capabilities of one or several WEB services capable of interacting with a program on the automation equipment.
