In this article, a Web services network extractor toolkit,WS-NEXT (WS Network EXtractor Toolkit), is presented. WS-NEXT allows extraction of interaction and dependency WS networks. Networks can be extracted from syntactic and semantic WS descriptions. Such network structures can be analyzed using complex network tools. We provide examples of networks extracted from a publicly available WS collection. Additionally, we give some networks analysis results.
