Abstract: The web services are from different sources, heterogeneous, and of large volume. The user is in a crucial situation to select the best web services. The web service selection process aims to discovery the desired web services; as it allows to select the best web services to users' query. In particular, various web services have the same functionalities, so we need another factor to select the desired web services, which is the quality of service (QoS). The QoS has an important role in the web service selection process, it aims to classify the web service that have same functionality. This paper focuses on different concepts of the QoS. We present a new approach that is composed by two services; its role is primarily the best web service selection in relation with users' query and profile. In our approach, a better knowledge of user behavior is important because users can participate in research design and construction. The experiment shows that our method can accurately recommend the needed web services in a faster time.

Keywords: web service; query; user profile; quality of service; QoS.
