I have a conference theme
suggestion that I would like to present that incorporates and extends some of
the excellent suggestions put forth thus far. I often think about how SOA is
changing/has changed various technology areas (an example of a technology
area would be content management) - for example, this is how I did content
management before SOA, and this is how I can do it now, and here are the
benefits, etc. Though I don't have a title to suggest, the notion would be "SOA
and X", where X is a technology area (please feel free to use a different term
than "technology area".
Off the top of my head, some examples of
technology areas would be:
- Enterprise Architecture (for which
"technology area" is not the correct term, I realize - need a better term -
perhaps "application area" or "discipline"?)
- Business Process Management
(BPM)
- Semantic Technologies
- Data Architecture, Modeling, and Metadata
(can include Data Management under Data Architecture)
- Content and Document
Management
- Business Intelligence
etc.
So the presentations would be focused on
"SOA and Enterprise Architecture", "SOA and BPM", etc. (you get the idea).
Perhaps each of these could be separate tracks.
I think that this approach would enable us
to reach additional audiences beyond those that we reached for last month's
conference, and really give attendees a sense of where SOA fits in their
"world". So it would really be about "looking in towards SOA" from other
perspectives (perhaps this may give us a hint at a good title).
Thanks,

Hi All,
+1
I read Brand's notification message,
but had
other commitments, specifically the Ontolog Forum
members' call in
which I was committed to start
finishing up the planning for a
face-to-face
meeting and day-long workshop at the 9th
Protégé
International Conference July 23, 2006.
Oddly enough, and
unrelated to the SOA4EGov
planning, I suggested an SOA
Reference
Architecture collateral session at Stanford
Research Institute
International's Artificial
Intelligence Center, reciprocating for
their
willingness to host a social tour of the SRI AI
facility and the
Cognitive Assistant that Learns
and Observes (CALO) Project as an adjunct to
the
workshop during the Protégé Conference Week. I
will be asking the
chair of the OASIS SOA-RM-RA
Subcommittee, who works at Fujitsu in
Sunnyvale
if he would like to give this session, so it
occurred to me that
this session, in which I
would assist as a planner in order to add
an
ontological framework to it, could easily be
adapted to the 2nd
SOA4EGov Theme Farrukh
proposes.
That's my first serendipity for the
day. My
second serendipity is that OASIS is planning a
Joint OASIS-ITU
Conference on Emergency Alerting
in Geneva, Switzerland Oct. 19-20, to which
I am
working to develop a sponsor to send the same
Semantic
Interoperability/Service-Oriented
Architecture Pilot group that presented at
the
1st SOA4EGov Conference, highlighting the
ebXML/UDDI Web Services
Registry for the
Emergency Management and Health Informatics
domains,
utilizing OASIS CAP and EDXL DE
specification standards. So, without much
extra
effort, I suspect we could field another, more
advanced
demonstration and presentation, or
simply present the interop demo we will
be
developing further this summer. That would fall
under Federated
Information Management/Cross
Enterprise Data Sharing.
If I can manage
it, I will also suggest a demo of
the CALO for SOA Governance and
Maintenance, as
long as I don't have to work on it, since my own
time is
maxed out, and then some. :-D

Rex
