Abstract

Service-oriented architecture suits well for supporting large-scale cross-organizational business collaborations that can be commonly found in emergency management, supply chain management and healthcare management. However, in the applications, users usually have to make decisions within tight time frames and are overwhelmed with a large amount of SOAP data transfers. In this paper, a "by reference" data transfer strategy is proposed. The "by reference" data transfer strategy uses integration data structures to enable the elimination of the SOAP serialization and de-serialization within the service invocation by the exchange of their references. By integrating the "by reference" data transfer strategy, we can expect efficiency improvements in data transfer. Experiments and analysis supported our efforts.
