Abstract

The concept of web services represent the next generation of architectures for interoperability between software applications based on software industry standards. Presented here is an overview of web services, a discussion of the use of web services in the context of simulation and a demonstration of the use of web services for simulation as implemented in the Microsoft .Net software development and execution framework. The paper focuses on the vital role of industry standards in the definition and implementation of web services and relates this to the opportunities and challenges for similar standards and benefits for interoperability in simulation software.
