A Database Integrated System Based on SOAP Web Service

Abstract

An academic scientific digital data collection management (i.e., lecturers, researchers and students) in all educational institution, including Universitas Mulawarman, is very necessary. The purpose of digital data is to guarantee availability in a long term and the dissemination of scientific work data. However, data collection from various source publications (i.e., e-journals, e-theses, e-book etc.), are needed to be integrated into a repository system. In this paper has been presented a database integration model from a collection of publications or e-journals such as journals and proceedings into the repository system. A web service integration model has been implemented with Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) services, Web Service Definition Language (WSDL), Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration (UDDI), and NuSOAP (SOAP written in PHP language library). The results of this study indicated that the database of e-journals and proceedings on http://e-journals.unmul.ac.id is capable to be integrated into the repository system http://repository.unmul.ac.id which is an open access system.
