Dynamic Services Mashup and Visualization

As the evolution of the social software and Web 2.0, mashup has become one of the key technologies to provide a completely new service using content from APIs, web pages and other web sources. In this paper, a mashup pattern has been proposed that can easily make a dynamic services mashup and provide a customizable user interface. First of all, the design of the mashup pattern will be introduced, which mainly contains mashup resource, dynamic service mashup and service mashup visualization. Then, the dynamic services mashup will be discussed in detail, including service mashup definition using extensional JavaScript, mashup engine, hot-deployment of the mashup. The third part of the paper covered the service mashup visualization for both web users and mobile users. Finally, a mashup web application is made to give a contrast between the popular mashup tools. The comparative analysis showed that the new mashup pattern has an advantage over service performance and visualization.
