The same framework can be used to coordinate information flow between multiple Web Services.  This allows developers to create long-running Business Process using WF workflows and expose them as Web Services to be consumed by external applications.  Doing this provides a complete environment that provides tracking, state management, transaction support, concurrency constructs, and rules support for expressing business constraints. The goal of this session is to show developers how you        can use the WF to support SOA-enabled services.]]></description></item><item><title>AJAX and SOA: The Perfect Match</title><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/213569.htm</guid><link>http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/213569.htm</link><pubDate>Tue, 06 Jun 2006 10:00:00 EST</pubDate><comments>http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/213569_f.htm</comments><description><![CDATA[AJAX and SOA: The Perfect Match]]></description></item><item><title>From Enriched HTML to Client/SOA: The Four Quantum States of AJAX</title><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/175769.htm</guid><link>http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/175769.htm</link><pubDate>Tue, 06 Jun 2006 09:45:00 EST</pubDate><comments>http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/175769_f.htm</comments><description><![CDATA[Today there is a spectrum of architectural approaches to AJAX solutions.

Copernicus eventually reversed this popular notion by showing that earth in fact revolves around the sun. Similarly on the Web, the server has always been the center of the universe, with the client relegated to being more or less a dumb terminal, revolving at the periphery of a server-oriented architecture. Using the OpenLaszlo Ajax platform as an example, Laszlo Systems founder David Temkin will show how SOA, coupled with advanced Ajax applications, are changing the Web's center of gravity from the server to the client.  Heresy or not, this session will prove that the client is becoming the center of todays new Web architecture.]]></description></item><item><title>Agile Java Development with Spring, Hibernate and Eclipse</title><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/225807.htm</guid><link>http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/225807.htm</link><pubDate>Tue, 06 Jun 2006 05:45:00 EST</pubDate><comments>http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/225807_f.htm</comments><description><![CDATA[This presentation provides software developers, architects, and technical leads, a fresh perspective on how to develop enterprise-class SOA Java applications rapidly, using Agile methods, plain-old Java objects (POJOs), the Spring Framework, Hibernate, and Eclipse.]]></description></item><item><title>Open Source Project Management: Tools &amp; Patterns</title><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/227434.htm</guid><link>http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/227434.htm</link><pubDate>Tue, 06 Jun 2006 05:45:00 EST</pubDate><comments>http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/227434_f.htm</comments><description><![CDATA[This session will give an overview of management tools and patterns for very large (distributed) Enterprise projects including Business Process design UML (Use Cases) and tools such as Eclipse or Maven (1&2).]]></description></item><item><title>Making Truly Great, &quot;Blue-Chip&quot; Software Products</title><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/200540.htm</guid><link>http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/200540.htm</link><pubDate>Mon, 05 Jun 2006 17:00:00 EST</pubDate><comments>http://www.soaworld2007.com/read/200540_f.htm</comments><description><![CDATA[Too many teams create very decent products that, for whatever reason, fail to rise above the crowd and truly capture the popular imagination.
