1. SOAP, UDDI, Web Services, and the Semantic Web Justin R. Erenkrantz ICS 221 December 3rd, 2002

2. Web Services Identified by URI, HTTP, and XML Making websites more than content Enabling extensible interactions Ideally public, perhaps private –Commercial web services

3. SOAP W3C’s Simple Object Access Protocol XML-centric middleware data format Origins from simpler XML-RPC Nodes, roles, faults Typically bound to HTTP –Interesting architectural mismatches

4. UDDI Universal Description Discovery and Integration Acts as a naming service for Web Services Built on top of SOAP Distributed repositories Publish/subscribe support –SOAP callbacks

5. Semantic Web “Crown Jewel” Meaningful interpretation of web content Not just interactions, but understanding Each semantic web site agrees on meaning Effects of non-participation
