SOA Systems has been invited to deliver a workshop keynote for the 4th International Conference of Service-Oriented Computing (ICSOC) in Chicago.
Below is the abstract:
The 4th International Conference of Service Oriented Computing (ICSOC'06) follows on the success of three previous editions in Amsterdam, The Netherlands (2005), New York City, USA (2004) and Trento, Italy (2003). ICSOC is recognized as the main conference for service oriented computing research, by covering the entire spectrum from theoretical and foundational results to empirical evaluations as well as practical and industrial experiences. ICSOC'06 proposes several innovations to achieve this goal.
The ICSOC '06 Challenge: building new bridges to relevant communities and fostering “cross-communities” scientific excellence: Service oriented computing brings together ideas and technologies from many different fields in an evolutionary manner to address research challenges such as service composition, discovery, integration, monitoring and management of services, service quality and security, methodologies for supporting service development, governances in their evolution, as well as their overall life-cycle management. ICSOC'06 is strengthening the linkages to two important communities, Software Engineering and Grid Computing, with well known thought leaders from these communities serving in important organizing roles such as general chairs in shaping the conference. For many years, Software Engineering has developed methodologies and technologies for managing life-cycle of software components: requirement analysis, development, discovery, version control, testing and deployment. These methodologies are now being adopted in service life-cycle management.
