Fw: Building a SOA with BPM and MDA Workshop

Building a SOA with BPM and MDA

WHAT:	OMG’s Building a SOA with BPM and MDA Workshop
WHERE:	Burlingame, CA, USA
WHEN:	October 16-19, 2006
INFO:	www.omg.org/soa-bpm-mda

Workshop Silver Sponsors:

With the growing acceptance and popularity of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), computing systems now extend far beyond the firewall to automate enterprise-wide business processes, covering sales, supply chain, manufacturing, delivery, payment, HR, and more. The accurate capture and representation of business processes requires its own modeling environment that must merge smoothly with application modeling in order to feed into the software development, execution, maintenance, and evolution cycles that sustain and grow a business.

This workshop will examine the entire automation process starting with Business Process Modeling (BPM) and extending through application modeling, development, deployment, and evolution via OMG’s Model Driven Architecture® (MDA®).
