“…Unfortunately, WS security still constitutes the big challenge; in fact, despite the multitude of security proposals done mainly by specialized consortium, organizations and researchers such as W3C, OASIS [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], this problem seems to be not yet well solved. In our previous study [12], we have proposed a new model based on PKI and the improvement of the UDDI which must work rather as a trust centre to improve substantially the security of WS.…”

“…Consequently, any hacker can easily interfere in exchanged messages between any given client and provider to do what he wants. To deal with this problem, we proposed in our previous study [12] a new architectural model which can provide safe communications between involved parts and consequently secure WS as such we explain next. In this paper, we try to improve the overall functioning of our previous proposal by using agent technology which provides, particularly, autonomy, mobility, intelligence and flexibility.…”

“…In our previous study [12], we have proposed a new model based on PKI and the improvement of the UDDI which must work rather as a trust centre to improve substantially the security of WS. In this paper, we are concerned by another WS challenge which concerns their flexibility in terms of possibility to be used in several ways by their clients within a fixed delay and with a single contract with the corresponding provider.…”

“…This proposal was based, at the beginning [12], on two essential components; the first one is the necessity of utilization of the PKI by each involved party (clients and providers). Which means that any given client or provider must has its own certificate (private and public keys).…”

“…The second component concerns the UDDI which must play also the role of a trust centre between clients and providers. This means that any given client or provider has to be subscribed first at the UDDI [12] (trust centre) in order to ease the authentication of each other's and leads, consequently, to secure WS. Our concern here is, however, to improve the overall functioning of our model such that any provided WS will be, at the same time, well secure and more flexible.…”

Purpose – This paper presents an IT system – Student Connectivity Module (SCM) – designed to support administration of student exchange between universities in different countries, developed under the EU seventh Framework Program. The purpose of this paper is to share the acquired knowledge on existing difficulties in mobility management, propose solutions to those problems, and present results of system validation using its prototype deployed at two universities. Design/methodology/approach – Prior to the system design, the needs, plans and expectations concerning the academic IT services were surveyed among 100 universities. On this basis, in close with prospective system users, an original peer-to-peer system was developed using top-down model-driven and agile software development techniques. Findings – The barriers to effective interoperation of academic information systems (AIS) were revealed: first, diversity and heterogeneity of campus IT solutions; second, differences in patterns of international student mobility flow; third, diversity in national personal data protection policies; and fourth, lack of standards for e-data exchange. The SCM system overcomes these problems by adopting platform-independent IT solutions, web-services, a network of trusted authority servers, and a novel “quasi-standard” solution for e-data exchange, with the use of home university campus cards to access facilities at host institutions. Originality/value – The management of foreign student exchange is a complicated process. It involves students, faculty, administrative staff and external institutions. To the authors knowledge, there is no other comprehensive networked IT system available to facilitate administration of student mobility, make it better controlled, less laborious and faster, in a secure way. The IT solution contributes to overcoming the current barriers to academic mobility within Europe and elsewhere.
