Resource Discovery in Context of Internet-based Manufacturing
Linxuan Zhang, E Cims · Computer Integrated Manufacturing Systems · 2003
This paper is focused on the manufacturing resource discovery under ASP. The key issues in Service Discovery Protocol(SDP) are identified. Jini is considered to be the best candidate for P2P manufacturing resource sharing under ASP after an in-depth analysis of the typical SDPs, including Salutation, SDP, Jini, UPnP, SLP and UDDI. As a result of the perfect complement between Web and Jini, a Web- and Jini-based resource sharing architecture is proposed, which provides an integrated approach to the centralized and P2P manufacturing resource sharing under ASP.
