Proposal of Mashup Framework for End Users

Abstract:

This paper proposes a new mashup framework for end users and discusses the usability of the proposed framework. Recently, a wide variety of requirements for web services has arisen because more users are using web services in their daily lives. However, a single web service cannot satisfy all requirements due to the variety of those requirements. To satisfy the requirements, it is important to have web service mashups which coordinate a number of web services to match the requirements. A mashup framework is a software environment that makes it easy for developers to make mashups. The challenge of this study is to develop a new mashup framework for end users with a new mashup model and modules. The model and the modules are implemented in the proposed framework.
