Another important observation is that the use of Web services is now widespread in many industries including retail, financial services, national security, transportation, etc. According to ZapThink, a market research firm, the market for Web services platforms, application development suites, and management tools is projected to expand from a $380 million (US) market in 2001 to over $15.5 billion (US) in Also, according to a comprehensive Web services usage survey conducted on a number of organizations including Global 1000 corporations during Feb 2004, 70 percent of them are currently using Web services either internally or externally. In fact, recent studies on Web services have also shown its growth and acceptance. As such, and given that Web services operate on HTTP, a firewall friendly protocol, it is projected that many IT organizations will investigate and adopt Web services if proven viable. It also has strong support from major industry players such as Microsoft, IBM, Sun, HP, and Oracle, some of the major companies that are members of WS-I, an open industry organization chartered to promote Web services interoperability across platforms, operating systems and programming languages. It is based on technologies by the W3C, the international standard body that oversees various Web related technologies. Web service model is one that utilizes looselycoupled platform and language neutral framework for designing the next generation distributed systems. Web service is the latest buzzword in the industry to address the problems identified above. Here, even if two systems use the same protocol to communicate, the security of firewall prevents the communications from taking place.

Another difficulty is due to the fact that the majority of software applications reside behind firewalls security barriers that restrict communication between networks. This is evidenced from the failure of major distributed OO technologies such as CORBA, DCOM, and RMI from becoming mainstream software development technologies. A software component developed in one vendor s technology cannot easily communicate with another vendor s. Nevertheless, OO technology itself could not overcome many of the hurdles. Object-oriented (OO) technology has been utilized to accomplish these goals with relative success over the years. These organizations have software applications that use the Internet/Web to transfer data, interoperate, and conduct business transactions.
INTRODUCTION For many years, software reuse and systems interoperability have been primary goals of many IT organizations as means to curb software cost. The experience gained and the possible future enhancements of the work are also described.
It discusses how the latest state-of-the-art technology can be used to solve the antiquated problem of transcript processing faced by many universities and students around the world presently. The paper showcases various Web service features and how they can be used for a secure online transcript transmission system. It is fast becoming an important emerging technology that utilizes the power of the Web to produce an integrated, interoperable solutions based on standard Web protocols that are easy to consume in a heterogeneous network. Lim School of Information Technology Illinois State University Normal, IL, USA Abstract- Web services technology is a burgeoning technology that has received tremendous amount of attention in the software industry in recent years under the broader umbrella of service-oriented architecture (SOA).
