Web Services and the Resource Framework (WSRF)
Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe
A \"Web Service\" is a software system accessible over the internet, based on a particular collection of concepts and standards. The Web Services Resource Framework (WSRF) is a further set of concepts and proposed standards pertaining to Web Services which allow a service user to acess and manipulate state, i.e. data values that persist across and evolve as a result of Web Service interactions.
This course covers the Web Services and WSRF concepts and standards, and some of the technologies available for constructing, deploying and using a web service. It is intended for people with little or no prior experience of web services technology who wish to learn how to develop web services applications.
The event will support remote participants via AccessGrid.
Physical participation is limited to 14 people. Places will be assigned on a "first come, first served" basis. Please note that this is the first time that a course held at Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe will ve available via Access Grid to an external audience. While we hope to be able to provide you with a seemless transmission of the course via Access Grid, due to possible technical difficulties we do recommend that you attend the event physically.
