[patterns-discussion] Patterns for Web services at OOPSLA

[Ali Arsanjani]

At OOPSLA in Anaheim this year we will have a workshop on Web services patterns, in case you are interested, here is the URL:  http://www.arsanjani.org/oopsla2003/webservices.htm   Web services and service-oriented architectures are a promising technology. However, they are still fraught with problems and issues ranging from operational, quality of service to functional and methodology related. In this workshop we aim to identify real industry experiences (successes or failures) in designing and implementing web services based systems as well as research papers from academia aiming at identifying and alleviating major bottlenecks and issues related to service-oriented architectures, web services and dynamically re-configurable architectures. This workshop builds on the Object Oriented Web Services workshops in previous OOPSLA conferences and sets a slightly different direction aimed at consolidating web services and service-oriented architecture best-practices and patterns.   Ali       Ali Arsanjani Sr. Consulting I/T Architect, IBM Corporation www.arsanjani.org
