[ba-unrev-talk] Jon Bosak speaking in SF Bay Area on UBL
Apologies to those who for whom this is irrelevant. (01)
Thought some of you might be interested, so am passing it on. (02)
For those more business-oriented folk. (03)

> 1. October 22, 2002 - Two Presentations:
>
> Presentation 1:
> "The Universal Business Language (UBL)"
>
> Presenter: Jon Bosak, Distinguished Engineer, Sun Microsystems,
> http://www.sun.com
and Chair of the OASIS UBL Technical Committee,
http://oasis-open.org/committees/ubl (05)
> Abstract:
UBL is an open effort to increase interoperability in
electronic commerce by standardizing generic business messages.
Its deliverables include a set of XML schema naming and design
rules; an XML library of standard data components; a set of
basic business schemas (purchase order, invoice, shipping
notice, etc.); and a mechanism for the extension of the basic
schemas to operate in specific business contexts. UBL builds
on the ebXML initiative to establish a common framework for
electronic commerce and uses the OASIS technical committee
process to provide a publicly accountable, open, royalty-free
forum for the development of the standard schemas. This
presentation will explain UBL and describe its current status. (06)
> Speaker Bio:
Jon Bosak organized and led the working group that created XML,
subsequently serving for two years as chair of the XML
Coordination Group of the World Wide Web Consortium. He is a
long-time member of OASIS, the Organization for the Advancement
of Structured Information Standards, and he chaired the
committee that developed the OASIS process for the definition
of industry-specific XML markup standards. He also served on
the Advisory Board of the Electronic Business XML initiative
(ebXML), a joint project of OASIS and the United Nations body
for Trade Facilitation and Electronic Business (UN/CEFACT). He

> Presentation 2:
> "Web Services Orchestration"
>
> Presenter:
Doron Sherman, Chief Technology Officer, Collaxa, Inc.
http://www.collaxa.com (07)
> Abstract:
Web Services Orchestration is the platform layer in network
computing that
enables composition and coordination of services (the building
blocks) into
long-running transactions and collaborative business processes.
Orchestration
entails handling of four primary requirements: asynchronous
interactions, flow
control, business transaction management and activity
monitoring. Orchestration
carries the promise of cheaper, better, faster integration
available to the
mainstream (while current solutions remain locked into a
high-end niche). (08)
The components of an orchestration solution address the needs
for development,
deployment and management based on asynchronous services as the
core design
center. These include means for describing the interactions
(choreography, e.g.
based on the BPEL4WS/WS-C/WS-T set of specifications), authoring
the business
logic (orchestration logic), facilities for deployment
(orchestration server)
and managing/maintaining transactions/processes (orchestration
console). (09)
This presentation will explain Web Service Orchestration and
demo a solution. (010)
