Abstract

In this paper, we describe what Semantic Web and Web services are; discuss underlying core technologies for Web services, and list how Web services manifest in modern computing. Next we show how to build and deploy a weather web service using Micro"soft.NET technologies. To demonstrate the platform interoperability of web services technology, we show how to develop a client application (using Java technologies) to access the weather web service. To complement this demonstration, a web service for securities is developed in Java and a client for consuming this service is built using. NET technologies. The notion of semantic web is explained, and its relationship to web services is discussed. The paper concludes by pointing out research issues in semantic web services, and pedagogical implications for computer science curricula.
