Abstract
Methods and apparatus for descriptively representing an application programming interface and data of a networked software application, and a descriptive domain specific language are presented. Additionally, methods and apparatus for mashup creation, including a repository of networking or Web applications that may be reused and combined, are presented. Networked software applications and mashups are provided with mostly declarative common structure and design, facilitating sharing and reuse of mashup and mashup parts. For example, a method for representing a first application programming interface of a first networked software application includes forming a declarative representation of the first application programming interface, and forming a declarative representation of first data. The first networked software application comprises the first application programming interface and the first data.
