Research and design of heterogeneous data exchange system in e-government based on XML

Abstract

To solve the "information island" problem in e-government system, this paper presents a heterogeneous data exchange model based on XML standard and Web Service transport technology. Using SOAP encapsulation mechanism and XML encryption to provide data transport security from data exchange center system to each bureau branch OA system. A dynamic configurable adaptor was implemented to translate message between data center system and each bureau branch OA system. This model elevated data exchange level from simple data sharing to directly government business exchange and it has been applied and tested in practice. © 2012 Springer-Verlag GmbH.
