On-The-Fly Computing is the vision of covering software needs of end users by fully-automatic compositions of existing software services. End users will receive so-called service compositions tailored to their very individual needs, based on natural language software descriptions. This everyday language may contain inaccuracies and incompleteness, which are well-known challenges in requirements engineering. In addition to existing approaches that try to automatically identify and correct these deficits, there are also new trends to involve users more in the elaboration and refinement process. In this paper, we present the relevant state of the art in the field of automated detection and compensation of multiple inaccuracies in natural language service descriptions and name open challenges needed to be tackled in NL-based software service composition.      «
