A service management framework for SOA-based interoperability transactions

Although service oriented architecture (SOA) supports an architecture for robust interoperability transactions, there are many challenges that need to be investigated to develop the infrastructure for such transactions. One of the important problems still not considered is that how to manage these services in an efficient manner in transactions. In this paper, a framework for a more efficient management of services in interoperability transactions has been proposed. The purpose of this framework is to provide a secure and reliable environment for the communication of services in a SOA-based architecture. The framework is a combination of Web services reliable messaging protocol and the security model of our previous work (Phu et al., 2005).
