[Top 3 Points on Reference Architecture Work?] FW: Presentation on SOA-RM This Wed. in Washington DC (FOSE 2006)

Continuing my e-mail below on this list:

 

I 
plan to have a slide (perhaps 2) with points on our RA work. If you would like, 
feel free to reply directly to me with your suggested "top 3 points to make for 
our RA work" (I plan to include more than 3, so I'll take a combination of those 
that I receive).

 

It would be best if I could receive these by Noon EST tomorrow (Tues), 
but I will be happy to receive any by midnite EST tomorrow. Again, please reply directly to 
me - please do not reply to the list.

 

Thanks,

Joe

Subject: Presentation on SOA-RM This Wed. 
in Washington DC (FOSE 2006)

This 
is especially for those in the Washington DC area, and for general knowledge for 
all others:

 

I 
will be presenting on our reference model at the "FOSE 2006[1]" conference in 
Washington DC this Wed, 3/8/06, 2-2:45pm at the Washington Convention Center 
(Rebekah will not be able to join me do a scheduling conflict). This was just 
determined today, as there was an open slot due to a scheduling conflict, and so 
it is not yet listed on the program as of this e-mail. It will be very 
similar to the presentation that Rebekah and I gave in January, with some 
additional information on our SOA-RM-RA efforts. I especially included the 
SOA-RM/DRM mapping because I am presenting on the DRM at the same conference on 
Thursday.:)

 

Below 
I have included the abstract that I have written, in case anyone would like to 
leverage any of it for their own presentation purposes in the 
future:

 

<Abstract>

“Introducing The OASIS 
Service-Oriented Architecture Reference Model (SOA-RM): A Foundation and Common 
Vocabulary for SOA”

 

Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) 
has become a prominent paradigm for architecting systems and processes in a 
manner that leads to greater business agility, more flexible processes, enhanced 
interoperability between applications and systems – and therefore reduced costs. 
However, the notion of “what exactly is SOA” has remained elusive over the past 
several years due to a myriad of definitions and viewpoints across vendors, 
industries, and initiatives. The goal of the OASIS Service-Oriented Architecture 
Reference Model (SOA-RM) is to remedy this situation by providing a common 
vocabulary and representation for expressing SOA and its constituent facets to 
guide the definition, development and implementation of service-oriented systems 
and processes, as well as facilitate greater interoperability between those that 
already exist. The OASIS Service-Oriented Architecture Reference Model (SOA-RM) 
technical committee recently released its first Committee Draft for OASIS public 
review. 

 

This presentation will provide an 
introduction to SOA, along with an overview of OASIS SOA-RM. A mapping to the 
FEA Data Reference Model (DRM) will also be presented, to demonstrate the 
distinct synergies between the two reference models.
