BSR should provide search by kinds of Service Actions
UDDI "FIND" Extrememly Limited
Theoretically can search by Taxonomy catagory
Actually,
any
text added to Locator "
Value
" results in
nothing
being found, ever (IBM)
Only
name
(business, service, T-model) searches work
In
theory
, you cannot find a service other than by name
There is no specification of the actions a service performs
You cannot in theory look for a service which will "ship" unless "ship" is part of the
name
Supplier
is a category but would be nice to know it made a certain kind of chip.
Caterer
is a category but would be nice to know it delivered pasta in Palo Alto.
Fine that it is a
Travel
service, but can I book a flight?
There is no
machine-readable specification
of what a service does.
What is the point of web services, versus web-based services,
if they can't be discovered by software programs?
