Jean-Sebastien, It looks very go overall. However, I think the abstract should have an introduction to SOA and Tuscany must be introduced after that.
What do you think about this?: * Service Oriented Architecture (SOA for short) is an architectural style whose goal is to achieve loose coupling among interacting software agents. A service is a unit of work done by a service provider to achieve desired end results for a service consumer. Resources on a network in an SOA environment are made available as independent services that can be accessed without knowledge of their underlying platform implementation. The values provided by SOA include an increase of flexibility, agility, and better responsiveness to constantly changing business environments. SOA solutions are composed of multi-language reusable services, with well-defined, open and published interfaces (not necessarily relying on Web Services). Even though implementing services may be straightforward, deploying an SOA infrastructure is not. The Service Component Architecture (SCA for short) is a new standard that simplifies SOA programming, describing a model for building applications and systems relying on a Service-Oriented Architecture. SCA gives developers and architects the ability to represent business logic as reusable components that can be easily integrated into any SCA-compliant application or solution. The resulting application is known as a composite application. The Apache Tuscany incubator project provides an implementation of SCA, providing an easy to use infrastructure and programming model for developing SOA solutions that address practical business problems. The overall goal of the project is to provide an SCA based platform to simplify the deployment of distributed composite applications written in various programming languages such as Java, C++, scripting languages or BPEL, integrated with other Apache projects like Geronimo and Axis2. This document will explore how to use SCA and Tuscany to build composite service applications. Coding examples showing how to assemble SCA service components and implement an SCA composite application will be also presented. Tuscany will be used to build, deploy and run an SCA application on top of Apache Geronimo, communicate with Web Services using the Tuscany Axis2 integration, and integrate Web 2.0 clients using JSON-RPC. The way to embed and reuse parts of Tuscany to provide support for the SCA programming model will be also presented. Finally, it will be explained the way to extend Tuscany with additional SCA component types, programming languages, or SCA bindings and communication protocols. * Isn't it somewhat extent? Any comments welcome....

Tuscany provides an implementation of Service Component Architecture (SCA). The overall goal of the project is to provide an SCA based platform to simplify the implementation of distributed composite applications in various programming languages such as Java, C++, scripting languages or BPEL, integrated with other Apache projects like Geronimo and Axis2. This session will explore how to use SCA and Tuscany to build composite service applications. We will work through coding examples and show how to assemble SCA service components and implement an SCA composite application. We will use Tuscany to build, deploy and run an SCA application on top of Apache Geronimo, communicate with Web Services using the Tuscany Axis2 integration, and integrate Web 2.0 clients using JSON-RPC. We will also present how to embed and reuse parts of Tuscany to provide support for the SCA programming model, and how to extend Tuscany with additional SCA component types, programming languages, or SCA bindings and communication protocols. The session will assume experience with Java and Web Services but no previous experience with SCA or Apache Tuscany. Orientation: Technical Level: Experienced Comments welcome.
