SOA for eGov: Panel on Reference Model, Standards, and Specifications

All –

I wanted to forward along the overview presentation for a panel on Reference Models, Standards and Specifications as part of the SOA for eGov conference held last week in McLean.

The panel consisted of two parts:

(1) An overview presentation on Tuesday afternoon. This presentation focused on the key concepts of the Reference Model and how standards, protocols and specifications relate.

(2) Three panelists during 1.5 hour session on Wednesday morning. Each panelist discussed their experience using a reference model, standards and specifications as part of SOA.

The panel was well received and many folks were very excited to see examples of how all these pieces fit together as part of SOA. Several members of the audience expressed their anticipation for the completion of more concrete work of the RA sub-committee.

As an interesting side note: the most common question I received after the presentation focused on “How to tell the difference between a SOA built in accordance with the Reference Model and one which is not.”

The slides that I used are attached. Many thanks to the TC for producing a solid body of work and in particular to Ken Laskey for some excellent content that I used in this presentation
