Web services provide the power to integrate
Abstract :
Web services, emerging as the next generation of integration technology, provide an attractive alternative for enterprise application integration. This article presents a Web-services-based integration framework to address some general integration issues common to electric utilities. As a case study, the Web-services-based integration framework is then applied to design an integrated utility information system.
