I wonder if Monica can sue for being compared to this woman?
Lewinsky comparison grounds for libel
Comparing a woman to Monica Lewinsky is an egregious enough offense to be grounds for libel, Italy
Eric Newcomer is Chief Technology Officer at IONA, in which role he is responsible for directing and communicating IONA's technology roadmap, as well as its product strategy as it relates to standards adoption, architecture, and product design. He leads IONA's participation in all standardization activities, and has been involved in Web services standardization activities from the beginning.
The goal of distributed OSGi is to extend the OSGi framework for distributed computing capabilities by configuring an existing distributed computing software system (such as Web services, CORBA, or Eclipse ECF) behind an OSGi service. The demo showed a Web services solution using Apach...
One of the biggest debates in the software industry is about getting the level of abstraction right. By this I mean a level of interaction with computers higher than binary code or machine language - in other words, anything that presents humans with a more natural or intuitive abstrac...
One aspect of the debate over software productivity and assembly is whether or not visual tools can help. I think that they do - visual abstractions can be very meaningful - but I do not know of any visual system that actually solves the complete problem (i.e none have solved the custo...
Back in the 90s I was on a big project to standardize enterprise software. We wrote a few papers about it, and a chapter in a book. We often used the 'Henry Ford' analogy, which relates to the impact standards for interchangeable parts had on hard goods manufacturing. The Henry Ford an...
This week the new SCA website went live and in addition to an update on the work we've completed since we kicked it off in January, we announced new partners, including Cape Clear, Interface21, Primeton Technologies, Progress Software (formerly Sonic Software), Red Hat, Rogue Wave Soft...
SOA is all about an approach to IT-a design encompassing all IT assets, and the design has to be mapped to technology. Historically, companies used CORBA or messaging systems such as WebSphere MQ to implement their SOA designs. Today, the preferred SOA infrastructure software is Web se...
Sun has been regularly and consistently challenged to make Java more relevant (e.g. to XML and Web services) and more open (i.e. release control of the JCP and/or open source Java) but so far what we have seen amount to half measures at best.
I started blogging about two years ago with this entry, which was typed during the initial WS-CAF face to face meeting. This might give you some idea of what attending these type of committee meetings is like. Everyone around the room with laptops out, surfing the Web, checking e-mail,...
During a conversation over dinner with SOA Web Services Edge speaker and SOA Web Services Journal author, Eric Newcomer, Microsoft MVP Beth Massi defined software architecture in a way that resonated strongly with Newcomer. Here he shares it with readers of his blog.

One example I use to illustrate the difference is one that I learned during those long XML Value conference calls and meetings. One of the XML folks from IBM used the analogy of HTML frames to illustrate the point about processing only what you understand of the data (or message). Toda...
An easy blog entry to write. The SOA 'Power Panel' article and video are up on the SYS-CON site. If you get a chance to watch, let me know what you think, both of the content and the form.
In the early days of business computing, little attention was paid to the concept of sharing application logic and data across multiple machines. The big question faced by an organization was how to develop computer systems to successfully automate previously manual operations such as ...
There is no question that service-oriented architecture (SOA) is quickly becoming one of the hottest trends in enterprise computing. IT departments are inundated weekly, if not daily, with the claims and marketing messages of vendors announcing myriad technology and service offerings t...
Who better to explain about the Web Services Composite Application Framework - a collection of three specs designed to solve problems that arise when multiple Web services are used in combination - than Eric Newcomer, co-author of WS-CAF?
No standards movement in the history of the software industry has garnered as much attention or support as Web services. After the previous decade's failed attempts to reach unity, the industry has lauded the promise of more flexible, open, and interoperable software as a revolution an...
