NISS WebSwap: A Web Service for Data Swapping (2002)

Abstract:

Web Services are an exciting new form of distributed computing that allow users to invoke remote applications nearly transparently. National Institute of Statistical Sciences (NISS) has recently started hosting NISS Web Services as a service and example to the statistical sciences community. In this paper, we describe and provide usage information for NISS WebSwap, the initial NISS Web Service, which swaps one or more attributes (fields) between user-specified records in a microdata file, uploading the original data file from the user’s computer and downloading the file containing the swapped records.
