Towards individual service provisioning

Published:12 January 2003Publication History

ABSTRACT

With the emergence of modularized component-based electronic services, such as Web Services and semantically tagged services, Individual Service Provisioning, wherein any user can be a service provider, can become a reality. We argue that there are three basic requirements for such an architecture: a personal service platform for using services, tools for creating services, and a network for sharing services, and we present our motivation, design, and implementation of these parts. With our enabling architecture we hope to demonstrate a feasible prototype system that stimulates the emergence of more specialized services for all users
