Abstract

With the explosive growth of the Internet, businesses of all sizes aim on applying e-business solutions to their IT infrastructures, migrating their legacy business processes into Web-based environments, and establishing their own on-line services. To facilitate process and service integration, a complete and information rich service description language, is essential for server processes to be specified and for client processes to be able to locate services that are available in Web-enabled remote servers.

Within the context of emerging technologies, such as XML, the Internet, and Network-Centric Computing, we propose an architecture that allows for Web-based integration of distributed components and services. The architecture is based on component wrapping, a service description language that allows for the specification of services, and on techniques that support service registration and dynamic service localization.
