Abstract

We propose extensions to the Service Location Protocol (SLP), which allow for registration and discovery of services scattered across the wide area network. We make use of scalable wide area multicast to allow agents within an administrative domain to learn about services within other domains. We also describe a new agent, the Brokering Agent (BA), which is responsible for providing information about a particular set of services types.
