Pradeep Gurunathan, Dr. Seethalakshmi Pandian, Balamohan Somasundaram . Article:Design and Composition of e-Learning and Research Resources using Service Oriented Architecture. International Journal of Computer Applications. 12, 5 ( December 2010), 19-25. DOI=10.5120/1675-2261
Service-oriented architectures (SOA) is an emerging approach that addresses the requirements of loosely coupled, standards-based, and protocol independent distributed computing. To build an SOA a highly distributable communications and integration backbone is required. This functionality is provided by the Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) that is an integration platform that utilizes Web services standards to support a wide variety of communications patterns over multiple transport protocols and deliver value-added capabilities for SOA applications. This paper posits a technology and approaches that unify the principles of SOA, mathematical definitions for individual services and how the functions are designed to offer a manageable, standards-based SOA backbone that extends middleware functionality throughout by connecting heterogeneous components and systems and offers integration of services for a e-learning and research resources.
