Abstract

Location Based Services (LBS) is the most happening thing in the mobile industry today. Everybody is trying to generate revenue from location based services. Mobile phone manufacturers are developing new smart phones every day and network providers are offering high speed data connections. Several LBS providers and applications are available in the market but the major problem is service provider dependency. This paper gives an overview of a decentralized registry based architecture using web services technology which facilitates dynamic discovery, interoperability and provider independence. The web services technology uses UDDI registry service for publishing and discovering services but the discovery results obtained are not reliable as the service discovery considers only static service description. This paper contributes to enhancing LBS discovery by considering service dynamics and expanding LBS discovery process to neighboring locations.
