Collaborative Design of Web Services Composition Process based Peer-to-Peer Architecture

As infrastructure of shared services, Web Services provides possibility for business coordination and interoperability under distributed computing environment. However, the traditional centralized Web Services architecture has its limitation and peer-to-peer computing has become a new mode for network computing on the current Internet. This paper presents an collaboratively design method of Web Services composition process towards virtual enterprise coalition based peer-to-peer architecture, describes its system framework, the organization of peer-to-peer service nodes as well as the corresponding service discovery, binding mechanism and process generation method. And then, the performance analysis and evaluation of the method has been discussed. Finally, it prospects for the future research.
