Presentation

Open Source Tooling for Implementing OMG's new SOA ML Standard

We will present the next step in the evolution of Industry Standards and their implementation in Open Source. The latest OMG extension to the popular UML standard is a "profile" that supports the modeling requirements for a Service Oriented Architecture, aptly named "SoaML". Model Driven Solutions and IBM are the primary authors of this standard. This presentation will present and review this standard. It will also present an Open Source capability that takes this standard and extends it from the "model" to the ""code" - a true demonstration of how Model Driven Architecture (MDA) provides both a methodology - quite compatible and complimentary to TOGAF - and a process for rapid, agile, and traceable software development.
