Applying CBD to Web Services

Abstract

Despite advances in hardware and software technologies, it remains challenging to develop Web services software that are correct, efficient, and flexible. Some challenges arise from increasingly demanding end user requirements for itpsilas quality and functionality. Other challenges arise from complexities associated with integrating embedded systems composed of modular components. Web services represent an evolution of the Web to allow the open and flexible interaction of applications over the Internet. XML Web services are the fundamental building blocks in the move to distributed computing on the Internet. In this paper, we focuses on integrating Component based development and Web Services to enable the development and usage of components through the Web by dynamically creating Web services for the functionalities of the components. XML Web services standards, which include SOAP, XML, and WSDL, provide a high level of interoperability across platforms, programming languages and applications and hence these facets of Web services have been used to integrate the best aspects of component based development and the Web.
