  1. Agents and Web Services Interoperability Working Group(AWSI WG)Workplan Presentation Hiroki Suguri, Comtec 13-14 September 2005 Budapest FIPA meeting

  2. Outline • Problem Statement • Objectives of the WG • Competitive Analysis • Deliverables • Technology • Milestones • Dependencies • Participants FIPA AWSI WG

  3. Problem Statement • Agents lack interoperability with Web Services • Industry trend is WS, not agents • Both have strength and weakness • Expectation is high for agents • Semantic Web is the key • Core issues • Service registration • Service discovery • Service invocation/communication FIPA AWSI WG

  4. Objectives of the WG • Agent interoperation with WS • Locate, negotiate and interact bi-directionally • Value addition to WS • Dialogues, semantics, interaction protocols • FIPA backward compatibility • “As much as possible” • Non-interference with WS standards • Keep existing WS specs and implementations • Utilize Semantic Web • RDF, OWL FIPA AWSI WG

  5. Competitive Analysis FIPA AWSI WG

  6. WS-* Technologies • Web Service Choreography Interface (WSCI) • WS-Addressing • WS-AtomicTransaction • WS-BusinessActivity • WS-Coordination • WS-Discovery • WS-Eventing • WS-Federation • WS-Management • WS-MetadataExchange • WS-Policy • WS-ReliableMessaging • WS-Security • WS-Trust FIPA AWSI WG

  7. Deliverables (1/3) • Requirements Statement • Analysis of domain issues & use cases • Analysis of reference specifications • Analysis of existing AWSI related implementations • Detailed statement of requirements FIPA AWSI WG

  8. Deliverables (2/3) • Specification Overview • Outline of full specification contents • High-level description of architectural features • Usage models • Relationship to other specifications FIPA AWSI WG

  9. Deliverables (3/3) • AWSI Description Specification • Registration and Discovery Specification • Engagement Specification • Communication Language Specification • Messaging Specification • Interaction Specification FIPA AWSI WG

  10.
