It will help understanding the concept of finding applications automatically
because it is simply uses a supply chain example. Pleas take a look.



IBM Dynamic process is a suite contains a set of collaborative, role-based
capabilities that enable customers to model, simulate, execute, rapidly
change, monitor and optimize core business processes.



Any business Function needs an interface. Interfaces are defined using
WSDL.

If you take a look at UDDI technology, a provider usually publish its WSDL
in the UDDI registry.



The convention for publishing WSDL-based web services in a UDDI registry can
make UDDI effective for doing dynamic discovery of web services at runtime.

There have been attempts to define specifications for web services
discovery. WS-Inspection and WS-ServiceGroup.

IBM is a key player behind all web services standards and its
implementation.
