Serving Web 2.0 With Service-Oriented Architecture

EECS Colloquium

Featuring Kwei-Jay Lin, Ph.D.
Professor, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
UC Irvine

Location: McDonnell Douglas Engineering Auditorium
Free and open to the public

Abstract:
The global buildup of Internet connectivity and growing availability of inexpensive computing and communication devices have made the World Wide Web a virtual continent that is borderless. Anyone in the world with a computer and Internet access can now explore, join, build, or abandon any Web community at any time. This new freedom is often attributed to the "Web 2.0 era" of services and applications that let webizens collectively contribute to a Web presence and virtual collaboration. In this talk we look at the essence of Web 2.0 and SOA technologies.

Lin is a professor of electrical engineering and computer science with a joint appointment in the Donald Bren School of Information and Computer Science.  His research interests include real-time and distributed computer systems, and specifically, the development of a powerful, flexible and open real-time operating system.  He is involved in two major research efforts at UCI: the Distributed Real-Time Technology (DIRECT) project, (define); and the Real-Time and Embedded Linux project (Red Linux), a real-time kernel project based on the popular Linux kernel.  Lin earned his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in computer science from the University of Maryland, College Park.
