Towards automatic web-based generalisation processing: a case study

Abstract

Web Generalisation Services (WGS) play a big role in current generalisation research. However they are still lacking interoperability which is required for interchanging them. Their service interfaces are currently not generic and mostly reflect just the specific interface imposed by characteristics of the algorithm they provide. The missing interoperability limits automatic generalisation processing on the Web. In this paper we first describe our view on what WGS comprise. In addition we propose a methodology to increase the interoperability of WGS applying common concepts of the Web as XMLschema and namespaces. We demonstrate the effect of generic interfaces for generalisation operators by introducing a case study that is based on ratio-based simplification.
