 * Represents the OWL-S grounding. Note that there is not a subclass named WsdlGrounding. The reason is
 * a Grounding object may contain many {@link org.mindswap.owls.grounding.AtomicGrounding AtomicGrounding}
 * objects that are either WSDL or UPnP. Only {@link org.mindswap.owls.grounding.AtomicGrounding AtomicGrounding}
 * objects are labeld as WSDL or UPnP.
