Course Objectives
The objective of this course is to introduce Service-oriented Architecture (SOA) as a way of building distributed applications using Web Services (WS). The course aims at deepening the understanding of key aspects and principles of SOA and WS technologies, as well as related Software Engineering methodologies.
At the end of the course the students will:
(i) understand the notions of WSs, WS standards, and SOA;
(ii) understand the service engineering development processes that can be followed to realize reusable and flexible WSs;
(iii) understand how business process models and service-oriented programming models can be used as a basis for the design and the implementation of service-oriented systems;
(iv) be familiar with a number of frameworks that support the development and deployment of service-oriented applications, both WS clients and WS providers;
(v) have been introduced to the notion of service composition as a means for developing complex service-oriented applications.
