Research on Form-based Web Service Integration and Web Application development techniques

使用互联网的终端用户数量一直在增加。终端用户主动开发应用程序对于实现其自身任务的自动化已变得重要。特别是，Web服务的应用程序应该由领域专家自己支持，因为必须根据领域专家的想法频繁地修改Web服务。也就是说，软件质量特征中的功能性、可用性和可维护性更多地受到领域专家的影响，而不是IT专业人员。本文描述了通过Web服务集成来开发最终用户主动型应用程序。它基于“一个服务=一个表单”这一简单概念提供基于表单的界面。然后，从输入形式到输出形式的形式转换意味着服务集成。通过Web服务集成来开发Web应用程序存在两个问题。一个是如何与传统的Web应用程序通信。另一个问题是如何合并基于XML的Web服务。本研究通过Html-to-XML转换和XML合并的方法开发了Web页面的包装方法。在这些方法中，使用可视化工具在XSLT样式表中描述特定于应用程序的流程，并自动生成与应用程序无关的流程。

The number of end-users using the Internet has been increasing. Enduser-initiative development of applications has become important for automation of their own tasks. In particular, applications for Web services should be supported by domain experts themselves since Web services must be modified frequently based on the domain experts' ideas. That is, functionality, usability and maintainability in software quality characteristics are influenced by the domain experts more than by IT professionals. This paper describes enduser-initiative application development by Web service integration. It provides form-based interfaces based on the simple concept that "one service = one form." Then the form transformation from input forms into output forms implies service integration. There are two problems for development of Web applications by Web service integration. One is how to communicate with conventional Web applications. The other is how to merge XML-base Web services. This study developed the Web page wrapping method by the HTML-to-XML transformation and the XML merging method. In these methods, application-specific processes are described in XSLT stylesheets with visual tools, and application-independent processes are generated automatically.
