Abstract:	Semantic interoperability for web services is still a problem. Although decentralized solutions such as describing the integration context with a formal mapping language or using a web service description language exist, practitioners rely on implementing software adapters manually. For IoT and Web of Things systems, current scientific solutions fall short as changing them, once defined, requires strenuous effort. However, devices and thus, their interfaces change often in this class of system. This paper tackles the barrier of high formalization effort for mappings between required and provided interfaces. Therefore, we apply and evaluate a novel integration method for web service choreography. Our empirical experiment shows that this method lowers the integration time and number of errors by assisting the system integrator to reuse integration knowledge from previous integration cases.
