Design and Implementation of Two-way Jini Adaptor for Interoperability between heterogeneous Networks

The advent of the ubiquitous environments, the sub-networks is various to offer ubiquitous environments. There are diversify sub-networks such as Jini, UPnP, DPWS. To realize ubiquitous, any users can discovery and services in any sub-networks. However, they cannot support these requirement, because they don't do interoperability with other networks. In this paper, we introduce a Jini adaptor of WSUN(Web Services on Universal Networks). The WSUN is the framework which supports interoperability through the intermediation of Web services. The Jini adaptor has there roles: Lookup Service, Jini Client, Web Service Client. It converts Jini services to Web services and registers them. to UDDI registry. In addition the Jini adaptor process the events which happening in Jini system then that is utilized when another sub-network client search a service. Because the adaptor updates a service status continuously, it is possible that provides a service discovery and use to apply the status information. In conclusion, a Jini client is able to find and use a service which exists in heterogeneous sub-network through the Jini adaptor.
