A Web Service Interface for a Distributed Measurement System Based on Decentralized Sharing Network

Abstract

The Web Service technology has increased in importance in these years. Accessing to remote resources without knowledge about physical implementation and with a reduced hardware requirement is the main goal of new portable device. The use of Web Service technology allows clients to create a standard interface to access to the measurement service published by the server. In low cost multipoint distributed measurement systems, the measurement services are provided by Smart Web Sensors. A new concept of distributed measurement system arises from the possibility to fuse all services with the same functionality in a single user-transparent service: the response of distributed services network to a user request gives a complete vision of the service by collecting results from any Smart Web Sensor in the network. So, in this paper the development of a multipoint distributed measurement system, based on the peer-to-peer Gnutella network with Web Service interface, is presented
