John, in terms of modeling the table you show in RDF, please take a look at Semantic Tables in the TopBraid Help files. This will give you and RDF representation of the cells in the table. From there, you can use SPARQL to transform to a model that represents the concepts you want to extract from the table's structure.
Insofar as semantic web services are concerned, TopBraid supports RESTful Web services out of the box. In fact it's really easy to create a Web service using SPARQLMotion in TBC 3.5. See the FAQ at http://www.topquadrant.com/products/TBS_FAQ.html#TBS3 I have not heard much about WSMO as of yet. Others should post their experiences and insights, if any. UDDI and WSDL are used in some government-sponsored projects. One architecture we see is to use RDF to manage the terms used in UDDI service discovery (EVN is a good tool for this) and perform a RDF-to-XSD transform of the terms as a UDDI registry and WSDL descriptions. There is marginal ongoing interest in Semantic Web services (SWS) and WSDL-S. In addition, the VoID model (Vocabulary of Interlined Datasets) has been used in a number of projects to describe RDF datasets for discovery and linking EDF data. That's just an overview, my general assessment is that it is difficult to project how these trends will play out (although my observation is that VoID is on the move). There is not much available for SemWeb Service tools, but this will mostly likely become more important as linked data continues to grow.
