Abstract

This paper describes the implementation of a mashup that integrates travel services. There are various travel services focusing on flight, train, or bus. However, none of them can plan a best trip utilizing all of those travel methods due to the lack of centralized data provided by different organizations. Using service oriented architecture; we first construct the service wrappers for various travel services. Given a travel request from end user, our system can decompose the user query into subqueries and send those subqueries to primitive services in order to find the best way of traveling. The shortest path algorithm is used to find the cheapest price via the combination of flight, train, and bus.
