虚拟天文台的网络服务
Web Services for the Virtual Observatory
摘要：
Web服务形成了一种新的、新兴的范式，用于处理对Internet上资源的分布式访问。有平台独立的标准（SOAP，WSDL），这使得开发人员？任务相当容易。本文讨论了如何在虚拟天文台中使用网络服务。我们设想一个多层架构，与互操作的服务。一个设计良好的低层，由大多数数据提供者实现的简单标准服务组成，将在建立模块化架构方面发挥很大作用。更复杂的应用程序可以在此核心层上构建。我们提出了两个原型应用程序，SdssCutout和SkyQuery作为这种分层架构的例子。
英文摘要：
Web Services form a new, emerging paradigm to handle distributed access to resources over the Internet. There are platform independent standards (SOAP, WSDL), which make the developers? task considerably easier. This article discusses how web services could be used in the context of the Virtual Observatory. We envisage a multi-layer architecture, with interoperating services. A well-designed lower layer consisting of simple, standard services implemented by most data providers will go a long way towards establishing a modular architecture. More complex applications can be built upon this core layer. We present two prototype applications, the SdssCutout and the SkyQuery as examples of this layered architecture.
