Workshop
Background and Goals
"A
Web service is a software application identified by a URI, whose
interfaces and bindings are capable of being defined, described, and
discovered as XML artifacts. A Web service supports direct interactions
with other software agents using XML based messages exchanged via
internet-based protocols" [W3C].
Web Services is basically supported by
four technologies XML, SOAP, WSDL and UDDI. Extensible Markup Language (XML) is utilized to normalize the exchange of business data among trading
partners by providing an excellent means for data encoding and data
formatting. Simple Object
Access Protocol (SOAP) defines a simple way to package information and
send it across system boundaries. Web Services Description Language (WSDL)
is an XML language for describing Web Services, enabling one to separate
the description of the abstract functionality offered by a service from
concrete details of a service description. Universal Description,
Discovery, and Integration (UDDI) enables businesses to quickly, easily,
and dynamically find and transact with one another. These standards are
backed by the major players in the industries such as IBM, Microsoft, BEA,
Sun and Oracle. However, only this set of technologies is not sufficient
to develop real applications based on the Web. Development of
real-life applications relies heavily on the system model and
architectures through which this set of technologies are efficiently
implemented. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers,
engineers and practitioners interested in Web Services to discuss how
to develop real
applications on the Web.
This
workshop covers the fields of modeling, architectures and infrastructures for
Web Services.
Topics
of interest include, but are not limited to
- Web Services
Modeling
- The Model Driven Architecture
(MDA) and
