|
Several issues remain before Web services will have benefits similar to what traditional middleware brings to intra-organizational application integration. This article presents a framework that builds on current standards to help developers define extended service models and richer Web service abstractions. The framework’s conversation metamodel is derived from the authors’ analysis of e-commerce portal sites.
