SYSTEM FOR WEB SERVICE GENERATION AND BROKERING

摘要

Providing a system for generating a web service from multiple remote web services where the remote web services may span heterogenous hardware and software platforms. A web service is generated by characterizing existing web services as java interfaces and treating the web services as normal java object types. Web services are accessed using standard web protocols such as XML and HTTP. The application that provides the functionality is packaged as a web service allowing each system to communicate with any other system. The web service generation system is implemented in java using java communication commands and java programming objects.
