The annotation is essentially the association of some metadata with some other object, called target data.  The target data can be everything, starting with a table in a database, a file or document, or virtually any type of information. The annotation also has a wide range of meanings, so that it can be either a link to another table in a database or another database, a comment for a document, or the classical sticky note that is put on the fridge's door. The annotations a very important when working with great amount of data, the scientists and the

If we go back around six years that time the network computers with web was hard to imagine. That was the reason why the Web be successful where the previous hypertext systems failed can be traced with two basic factors and these two factors were simplicity and ubiquity. When talk about the service provider’s point of view, setting up a website could allow them to join the global society and the same when we think from a client’s point of view, if they can type then they can use the services. Last but not least, from a service API point of view

Looking back over the last six years, it is hard to imagine networked computing without the Web. The reason why the Web succeeded where earlier hypertext schemes failed can be traced to a couple of basic factors: simplicity and ubiquity. From a service provider's (e.g. an e-shop) point of view, if they can set up a web site they can join the global community. From a client's point of view, if you can type, you can access services. From a service API point of view, the majority of the web's work is done by 3 methods (GET, POST, and PUT) and a simple

The Efficient XML Software Development Kit (SDK) provides the tools you need to integrate Efficient XML into your application, system, or enterprise. Efficient XML SDK Contents The Efficient XML Runtime, used to encode and decode data in the Efficient XML format. The Efficient XML format was chosen by the W3C as the basis for the forthcoming Efficient XML Interchange (EXI) standard. Support for Popular XML APIs including SAX, DOM, JAXP, and a pull-model streaming API patterned on StAX, are built into the Efficient XML runtime. Efficient XML

Abstract The Semantic Web Services Initiative Architecture Committee (SWSA) proposes the following architectural and protocol abstractions as a foundation for supporting Semantic Web Service technologies on the World Wide Web. This document is based on a review of requirements gathered from a number of different environments to identify the scope and potential requirements for this Semantic Web Services architecture. Introduction The Semantic Web Services Initiative (SWSI) is an 'ad hoc' initiative of academic and industrial researchers, many

The MapPoint Web Service is a programmable web service hosted by Microsoft and used by enterprises and independent software developers to integrate location-based services such as maps, driving directions and proximity searches into software applications and business processes. By using the MapPoint Web Service, companies can improve business results through better discoverability of store locations and business assets. • The Solution: MapPoint Web Service • Benefits • Solution Scenarios • Features/Components • More

The Web Service Software Factory (also known as the Service Factory) is an integrated collection of tools, patterns, source code and prescriptive guidance. It is designed to help you quickly and consistently construct Web services that adhere to well known architecture and design patterns. If you are an architect or developer responsible for building service-based applications, the patterns & practices team would like to invite you to learn how the Service Factory can help your future service development activities. The Service Factory provides

Several essential activities need to happen in any service-oriented environment: 1. A Web service needs to be created, and its interfaces and invocation methods must be defined. 2. A Web service needs to be published to one or more intranet or Internet repositories for potential users to locate. 3. A Web service needs to be located to be invoked by potential users. 4. A Web service needs to be invoked to be of any benefit. 5. A Web service may need to be unpublished when it is no longer available or needed. A Web Services architecture then

WSDL provides a way for service providers to describe the basic format of web service requests over different protocols or encodings. WSDL is used to describe what a web service can do, where it resides, and how to invoke it. While the claim of SOAP/HTTP independence is made in various specifications, WSDL makes the most sense if it assumes SOAP/HTTP/MIME as the remote object invocation mechanism. UDDI registries describe numerous aspects of web services, including the binding details of the service. WSDL fits into the subset of a UDDI service

Web Services have three basic platform elements. These are called SOAP, WSDL and UDDI. What is SOAP? The basic Web services platform is XML plus HTTP. * SOAP stands for Simple Object Access Protocol * SOAP is a communication protocol * SOAP is for communication between applications * SOAP is a format for sending messages * SOAP is designed to communicate via Internet * SOAP is platform independent * SOAP is language independent * SOAP is based on XML * SOAP is simple and extensible * SOAP allows you to get around firewalls * SOAP

Core Web Services API in the Java Platform The Java API for XML-based RPC (JAX-RPC) lets you develop SOAP-based, interoperable, and portable web services. JAX-RPC — a required part of the J2EE 1.4 platform — provides the core API for developing and deploying web services on the Java platform. JAX-RPC web services can also be developed and deployed on J2EE 1.3 and Servlet containers. JAX-RPC provides many benefits to Java developers, including: --Portable and interoperable web services --Ease of development of web service endpoints and

Summary: This article looks at the XML Digital Signature specification, explaining its processing model and some of its capabilities. It provides a more detailed, lower-level understanding of how the WS-Security specification implements its message security feature. Introduction: Digital signatures are important because they provide end-to-end message integrity guarantees, and can also provide authentication information about the originator of a message. In order to be most effective, the signature must be part of the application data, so that it
