Developing Agent Web Service AgreementsWeb Service Agreement • September 27th, 2005
Contract Type FiledSeptember 27th, 2005Web services have emerged as a new paradigm that sup- ports loosely-coupled distributed systems in service discov- ery and service execution. Next generation web services will evolve from performing static invocations to engag- ing in flexible interactions and negotiations for dynamic resource procurement. To this end, this paper applies an agent-oriented based approach over a recent web service language, WS-Agreement, in order to facilitate conversa- tions of sufficient expressiveness between adaptive and au- tonomous services. We discuss how such agent web service agreements can be implemented over IBM’s Emerging Tech- nologies Toolkit (ETTK) that itself includes an implementa- tion of the WS-Agreement specification.
