Abstract | The problems with existing object models for distributed applications forced developers to look for alternatives. With the rapid adoption of Web standards, it is natural that solutions based on Web standards would be considered. This led to the evolution of Web services. The Web services paradigm enables automated web application interoperations. The first step toward this interoperation is the location of other services. Although there are many service brokers performing location of Web services, most of them do not allow a client to search for Web services by their capabilities. The traditional UDDI search is restricted to keywords and key reference matching. Moreover, with the evolution of Web service technology networked services will not only become increasingly sophisticated, but also move into the area of business-to-consumer interactions. This study suggests a Web service modeling and interface design for teaching programming language on the internet such that users without technical and domain knowledge could take the benefits and learn programming on the web. The resultant guidelines aim to provide feasible Web Service modeling to the new environment with minimum amount of workload, such that maximum amount of resources could be reused from the present system to work on the new environment. The prototype system is constructed as an E-Learning framework. A prescribed strategy and a set of guidelines have been adopted on the Q&A e-learning system as an implementation. |
