CATS Aggregator Web Service v1.0



The Aggregator service accepts requests to produce aggregations of items. A single request produces a single aggregation. Each request contains a series of instructions that are referred to as a profile. The instructions tell the Aggregator which services to call to process the request, as well as the information to pass to these services.

Note that there is no direct output from an Aggregator service. However part of the profile can be used to specify a Writer service that can be used to generate output.

The current CATS implementation of an Aggregator service is non-interactive; the definition of what to include in the aggregation is wholly defined by the original request.
