Demo Phase 1 - Google searchs on Java Web Start

Demo Menu
On-demand Application Integration as a Service is an interesting marketing claim that could mean lots of things.

The demo illustrates a new supply chain consisting of a single data producer and a single consumer of that data. Familiarity with  Publish Subscribe Messaging is assumed as is the prior existence of a b2bpo demo user with name dogtown making use of a Pub/Sub Topic named google in order to connect publishers and subscribers. The demo's business context is a situation where Google Searchs take the place of normal shareable business data. The Demo captializes on Google's Web Service API's, using a customized "search" form in order to generate new "search" data on the demo supply chain (steps 7, 8 in table below). Active Subscribers in the demo receive any and all searches processed while their subscription is active (steps 1 - 6 in table). Each demo search form submission constitutes an event in the supply chain whose associated data (google search results) needs distribution to the other supply chain partners ( subscribers to google topic).

Due to the use of a polling protocol, the Subscriber goes first in this demo by using the main "topic" menu to find the "google" subscription and launching a polling process that will  periodically request new "updates" on the "google" topic. After the subscription is invoked, the user changes hats, using the simple Google Search dialog in order to process searches and to publish some search data to any active subscribers.  The net result is that any searches executed by you or by anyone else during the time window for your subscription will produce a standard html page of google results that will be transferred, by a web service request, to your desktop where it appears as a file icon.

The CRM link that concludes the table below is not required for running demos. Independently, it handles signups for new customers wanting to experiment with their own Pub/Sub Topics.
