<h1>Web Services Activity Statement</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Web services provide a standard means of interoperating between different
|
|
software applications, running on a variety of platforms and/or frameworks.
|
|
Web services are characterized by their great interoperability and
|
|
extensibility, as well as their machine-processable descriptions thanks to
|
|
the use of XML. They can be combined in a loosely coupled way in order to
|
|
achieve complex operations. Programs providing simple services can interact
|
|
with each other in order to deliver sophisticated added-value services.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The W3C Web Services Activity is designing the infrastructure, defining
|
|
the architecture and creating the core technologies for Web services. The <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/soap12-part1">SOAP 1.2</a> XML-based
|
|
messaging framework became a W3C Recommendation in June 2003 and the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/REC-soap12-mtom-20050125/">SOAP
|
|
Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism (MTOM)</a> in January 2005.</p>
|
|
|
