Abstract:This paper presents the basic concepts of the web services technology and its potential applications in Civil Engineering. There are various communication protocols that are now available for building distributed engineering web services. This paper presents three example applications utilizing some of these protocols. These examples are employed to demonstrate that the web service approach is a promising paradigm for integrating large engineering software applications.
