The System of Cataloguing and Monitoring of Geographically Distributed Computing Nodes in WPS Services Environment for Geological Problems Solving

Abstract

The study describes an approach for heterogeneous web services cataloguing of geographically distributed computing nodes in the computational and analytical geological environment. The approach of creation of web services monitoring system is proposed. In this study the approach for web services catalogue organization based on SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) protocol, with use of UDDI (Universal Description Discovery and Integration) registries is reviewed. The scheme for heterogeneous web services description with an ability of further creation of catalogue is proposed. The catalogue includes functions for searching and receiving of metainformation about every web service in it. The study also describes an approach for computational and analytical geological environment creation. A number of web services for heterogeneous data processing used in geological research is described. The approaches for organization of cataloguing and web services monitoring provide a higher level of reliability of computational and analytical geological environment. They provide an information about web service reliability within environment.
