LBS convergence agent for interoperability between LBS platforms

This paper describes a study of interoperability between LBS platforms. We proposed the system framework able to be interoperated between LBS platforms. The framework adopted the WSDL and the UDDI. These things make LBS platforms more flexible and interoperable. Additionally our system can provide the LBS clustering service. To do this we propose the LBS convergence agent that provides the interface for integrated management of LBS platforms, which compose the component for testing the conformance and interoperability. Therefore we could improve the management.
