Claim 0:
1. A hierarchical routing method oriented to a cross-boundary service network, the hierarchical routing method comprising the following steps:
(1): proposing reference services for services with same or similar functions in a service network, with differences in format and usage mode, and establishing a unified and standardized usage view for a user; and
(2): establishing a method for mapping between the reference services and ordinary services to map the multiple ordinary services with similar functions into the unified reference services, and automatically selecting an optimal ordinary service when called by the user;
wherein the step (1) comprises:
(1-1): initialization of the reference services: performing function clustering on existing services in the service network by means of data mining, and generating an initial reference service blueprint containing all call parameters for each type of service set; and
(1-2): revision by a domain expert: on the basis of the initialization, modifying, merging, and deleting, by the domain expert, the existing call parameters according to existing related service discussions, performing revision to form the final reference services, and publishing the final reference services into the service network;
wherein the step (2) comprises:
(2-1): mapping of the reference services: associating, by a user provider, ordinary services of the user provider with the reference services published in the service network, establishing the method for mapping between the reference services and the ordinary services to map the multiple ordinary services with the similar functions into the unified reference services, and generating a configuration file; and
(2-2): call of the reference services: when the user calls the reference services, searching for, by a platform, an associated candidate reference service list and a configuration file thereof, automatically calling the reference services according to a routing strategy, and returning an optimal result.
