• The underlying concepts, principles, and methodologies of web services
• The fundamental technologies that underpin the web services paradigm
• How web services are introduced into organisations, and how they are designed, deployed and used
• The key standards necessary for the development of web services

Web Services: Principles and Technology is suitable for computer science students and also for professionals who need an introduction to this area. Key features to help reinforce your understanding include: 

• Spiral approach to build on earlier knowledge as the topics become more advanced
• Numerous examples throughout demonstrate the practical application of the theory

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Web services, usually including some combination of programming and data, are made available from a business's web server for web users and other web connected programs.  The accelerating creation and availability of these services is a major computing trend as software becomes increasingly distributed and web-based. Web services are the next logical step for web-based computing and will have a profound impact on the way in which business is conducted on the web in the future.  As they involve many different systems communicating with each other, they are particularly important following the proliferation in the range of computing devices (PDA's mobile telephones, hand held computers etc).

 

This book will provide a comprehensive treatment of the concepts and isses in web services, looking at how they are designed, and the key technologies, and standards used.
