Abstract

See full text

An 'event registration service' that enables unrelated and 'uncoordinated' systems (i.e. systems that have not planned advance to work together by using the same prerequisite software) to be linked together to facilitate event notification is disclosed. The event registration service links these unrelated systems (e.g., those that have declared events with those that have registered an interest in those events) to facilitate event notification between the unrelated systems. The event registration system functions by combining the functionality of the Web Services Inspection Language (WSIL) and XML style sheets (XSLT). In accordance with the present invention, WSIL hierarchies are built to represent event declarations ane event registrations. XSLT is used as an adapter, converting from one API (represented, for example, as a SOAP message) to another (e.g., another SOAP message representing a different data structure, such as that derived from a COBOL copybook).
