Applying Model Driven Architecture to Web Services

Length: 1/2 day

Overview:

Two different trends are taking place in the industry; Web services driven by IBM, Microsoft and others, and Model Driven Architecture (MDA), driven by the OMG. Model Driven Architecture describes how to create standards-based, technology-independent models of business concepts, and then map them to different specific technologies. This seminar describes where and how to applies these techniques to Web service applications to enjoy the future-proofing benefits of MDA and maximize the cross platform integration capabilities of web services.

Workshop Goals: The workshop will provide a basic overview of MDA concepts and technologies, with a concrete emphasis on applying MDA to Web service based systems. Attendees will understand the benefits and techniques of using MDA for Web service application development.
