The Research and Implementation of Turning Conference Management System into a Service

As the need for application service becomes larger and larger, turning software into a service has been addressed as a matter of urgency. There are two kinds of application delivery models, ASP and SaaS. This paper describes a method for turning software into a service using the ASP model, and use conference management system as an example to illustrate the idiographic process. According to the pertinences, software systems can be classified to two types. One type is user-independent, and the other is organization-centralized. This paper describes how to turn the organization-centralized software to a large-granularity application service.
