The view of a web of agents is also my understanding (so far) Cyril -----Message d'origine----- De : Ian Jacobs [mailto:ij@w3.org] Envoyé : lundi 9 mars 2015 23:05 À : VIGNET cyril Cc : Dave Raggett; Mario de Armas; Adler, Patrick; Web Payments IG Objet : Re: payment "diagrams" > On Mar 9, 2015, at 9:23 AM, VIGNET cyril <Cyril.VIGNET@bpce.fr> wrote: > > The analogy with a payment terminal seems to me very interesting. If we look at all the functions performed by a POS terminal we have both “merchant functions” and “cardholder functions” that are entangled. As mentioned Dave, the “user agent” should provide “cardholder functions” and the “server agent” should provide the “merchant functions” in a secure way (security easier to implement when having a unique hardware that a distributed system, I believe). Thanks Dave. This sounds like and idea I’ve heard in other conversations: maybe we are building a web of agents, who talk amongst themselves (after authentication) asynchronously. So there are user payment agents and merchant payment agents and bank payment agents and so on. What are the APIs and data requirements to let them do their respective jobs?
