Treffer: DISTRIBUTED DATA MODELS USING XML BASED CLIENT SERVER COMMUNICATION AND SOAP.

Distribiuted data models for many branchs of e-science are essential for sharing the latest research results among the global community of academic and industrial workers in the filed. However, the development of databases using these models is a daunting task for the average science researcher. In this paper we report on our work to make this task easier to carry out, in particular we report on the set of tools and methodologies needed to develop and establish such databases in the field of bio-informatics, as an example which has witnessed great recent effort. These concentrate on the use of computer communications technologies such as XML, client-server, Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) and webMethods GLUE [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
