Demonstrations to Showcase Industry Standards, Integrated
Vendor Solutions Alexandria,
VA - Nov. 19, 2003 - IDEAlliance, a
leading trade association dedicated to fostering information technology
standards, today announced that XML Conference and Exposition 2003 will feature
several "interoperability demonstrations" organized by OASIS, W3C,
and WS-I. The demonstrations will
showcase numerous vendors' products working together to help businesses
solve critical IT challenges. XML
Conference and Exposition 2003 is being held Dec. 7-12 at the Pennsylvania
Convention Center in Marion
Elledge, vice president of Information Technology Alliances & Conferences,
IDEAlliance, says that the demonstrations highlight the importance of standards
in allowing disparate products to join together to form comprehensive, tightly
integrated business solutions. "Simply
put, standards are the 'glue' that allow companies to tie together
different products to best meet their unique business and workflow
needs," says Elledge. "These
demonstrations, organized by leading standards organizations such as OASIS and
W3C, will focus on real-world solutions made possible by industry standards and
product interoperability." OASIS
(Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards), a
global consortium that drives the development, convergence, and adoption of
e-business standards, has organized five demonstrations featuring a variety of
OASIS standards and specifications: *
Achieving Interoperability Using
Test Frameworks *
The OASIS WS-Reliability Interoperability
Demonstration ·
Epidemic
Management Using OASIS ebXML, UBL and XACML
Specifications ·
The
OASIS Web Services for Remote Portlets (WSRP)
Specification The World Wide
Web Consortium (W3C), developer of interoperable Web technologies
(specifications, guidelines, software, and tools), has organized
interoperability demonstrations on four topics: *
Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) Implementations
*
Web Services
*
Semantic Web Applications and Collaboration Software *
XML Schemas in Enterprise Applications *
Providing Test Suites Using
XML-based Technologies
Organizations participating in the W3C
demonstrations include Arbortext, INRIA, the National Institute of Standards and
Technology, and Open Group.

Services Interoperability Organization (WS-I), which promotes Web Services interoperability across platforms,
applications, and programming languages, has organized
interoperability demonstrations that will take place at their booth (#416)
