Abstract

In this paper, we will propose a flexible and scalable statistical environment based on the web service and offer a unified XML-based programming interface for statistical computing. We separate various statistical functionalities into groups of services and design its interface and architecture. All of services are defined as an agent and implemented using web service technology. And all the statistical operations, data, and results are formulated as a XML document. Finally, a prototype was designed and implemented to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed framework. Statisticians can easily program their solution and the programs can be Write-Once and Run-Anywhere (WORA).
