            3.1.20  web  services  system  [ITU-T  Y.2232]:  A  web  services  system  is  a  software  system
            designed  to  support  interoperable  machine-to-machine  interaction  over  a  network  using  web
            services standards.

            NOTE – It has an interface described in a machine-processable format (specifically WSDL). Other systems
            interact  with the  web services in  a  manner  prescribed  by  its description  using  SOAP-messages,  typically
            conveyed using HTTP with an XML serialization in conjunction with other web-related standards.
            3.1.21  WSDL  [b-W3C WSDL 1]: Web services  description language Version 2.0 (WSDL 2.0)
            provides  a  model  and  an  XML  format  for  describing  web  services.  WSDL  2.0  enables  one  to
            separate the description of the abstract functionality offered by a service from concrete details of a
            service description such as "how" and "where" that functionality is offered.
