Description
Summary:Most of the people nowadays use the internet to find services. However, these will become more complicated to make decision due to the hundred numbers of service providers floating on the Internet. The main purpose of this project is to develop a network protocol that is able to discover any devices or services in a computer network. This service discovery protocol may automatically allow the user find the exact service provider for the requested service. The Jini protocol is used to achieve the aim of this project because it is easily available and modular. The method used for programming in Jini is in Java programming language. To ease implementation, this project used Jini technology version 2.1 starter kit. There are three services generated using three different service providers. They are a public taxi service, an ambulance service, and PLUS services with three other PC as the service providers. The client and service providers are located in three different distances to test the system. From the project analysis, Jini protocol can be implemented to the real world service application. However, the delay performance of the network depending on the network traffic and the distance between the client and service providers.
