| Web Services |
by Stephan Reiff-Marganiec
In the three lectures of this part we will consider the potential of service oriented architectures. The first lecture will set a background by looking at current practice and the vision that can be found behind service oriented architectures. We will also draw on details from the telecommunications world, where services have been in use for a long time.
The remaining two lectures will be centred on personalised applications achieved through policies. We will introduce the concept of policies, and see how these can be used to express user requirements (we will also discuss their more traditional usage briefly). User-oriented policies have been employed in the context of telecommunications systems, and we will explore this before venturing into the ongoing research of applying policies to achieve just-in-time applications using generic services. |
