Foundations and Future of Web Services

This tutorial provides an overview of the major Web service technologies standardised at the W3C, starting with the messaging framework (SOAP 1.2, MTOM, WS-Addressing 1.0), continuing with the description languages for services and choreographies (WSDL 2.0, WS- CDL 1.0), and finally covering future directions and initiatives pursued toward making the promise of web services a reality.

Organization

The tutorial is a half-day activity co-located with ECOWS 2005. It will be held on 13:30 - 17:00 on Monday 14 November 2005 (to be confirmed).

For registration please enter the ECOWS registration procedure.

Learning Objectives

The overall goal of this tutorial is to instruct attendees what web services attempt to achieve, how this translates into a service oriented architecture, the standards developed at the W3C for realising this architecture, and how these combine to provide solutions. In addition, attendees will gain a solid understanding of the future directions and initiatives being developed to further enrich this stack. The session will be interactive, with audience questions and observations very much encouraged.

Target Audience

This tutorial is of interest to researchers and practitioners seeking a substantive report on the variety of technologies that bring the Web to its full potential, as well as insights on future work developments.

He has been active in the open source community since 1997, including in the Debian Project until 2003. He holds an engineering degree from the "Grande Ecole" Ecole Centrale Paris, and a Diploma in Computer Science from the University of Cambridge where he worked on resource reservation for ATM networks with devolved control (DCAN). Prior to joining the Consortium, Hugo worked as a software engineer for 3Com in England.

Charlton Barreto is currently work on the cross-stack architecture of Adobe Systems' Intelligent Document Platform, and is responsible for developing web service collaboration specifications, including WS-Choreography and WS-BPEL. Since 1999, Charlton has worked extensively on a number of specifications in the JCP (most recently JEE 5), W3C (most recently WS-Choreography), and OASIS (most recently WS-BPEL). He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Columbia University where his research focus was in the area of distributed systems and network management. Prior to joining Adobe, Charlton has worked for a number of years in architecting, designing and developing highly distributed systems, including the implementation of collaboration and orchestration runtime platforms.
