    > Date: 19 Dec 2003 17:19:55 -0500
    > 
    > The OASIS Symposium on Reliable Infrastructures for XML
    > April 26th and 27th, 2004 in New Orleans, Louisiana
    > 
    > Call for Presentations
    > 
    > OASIS, the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information 
    > Standards, invites you to submit a proposal for a presentation, panel 
    > discussion or tutorial for the OASIS Symposium on Reliable 
    > Infrastructures for XML. The goals of the symposium are to:
    > 
    > * Provide a forum for OASIS Technical Committee members to exchange 
    > ideas and present results of ongoing work, works-in-progress, etc.;
    > * Identify areas where coordination between standards efforts is needed 
    > to promote interoperability;
    > * Identify unaddressed topics where standards development is needed;
    > * Enable outside experts to present issues / opportunities to OASIS members.
    > 
    > The symposium will be followed by two days available to OASIS Technical 
    > Committees, Joint Committees and Member Sections for face-to-face 
    > working sessions. The OASIS Annual General Meeting will also be held in 
    > conjunction with the symposium.
    > 
    > 
    > Overview
    > 
    > Many different (and partially interchangeable) technologies are proposed 
    > or available to increase the reliability of XML-based messaging and 
    > networking infrastructure.  These include technologies applied:
    > 
    > * At the transport layer (e.g. reliable messaging specifications);
    > * At the application layer (e.g. transaction protocols);
    > * At intermediate levels (e.g. routing, point-to-point compared to 
    > end-to-end);
    > * By using Message-Oriented Middleware as a carrier for XML messages.
    > 
    > We define "reliable" to mean that implementing one or more of these 
    > technologies in an infrastructure removes some of the burden of ensuring 
    > application integrity from software programmers and architects.
    > 
    > The OASIS Symposium is focused on exploring the current state of these 
    > technologies and exploring areas where open standards are needed.
    > 
    > 
    > Instructions
    > 
    > The symposium program committee invites you to submit a proposal for a 
    > presentation, panel discussion or tutorial that addresses technologies 
    > and standards for reliable XML infrastructures.
    > 
    > Presentations should be 30 minutes long including question and answer. 
    > Sessions will consist of related presentations, ending with a 
    > question-and-answer session directed to the presenters.
    > 
    > Panel sessions should be 60 minutes long. Proposals for panels should 
    > include the topic, 3-to-4 potential panelists (name and/or role) and 
    > proposed format (e.g. Q&A, short presentations).
    > 
    > Tutorials should be 1/2 day sessions.  Tutorial proposals should state 
    > intended audience and learning objectives.
    > 
    > Proposals should address topics in reliability as applied to XML-based 
    > communications at the technology and implementation levels, ideally 
    > driven by usage scenarios. Special consideration will be given to 
    > proposals that:
    > 
    > * Compare and contrast multiple related technologies (clear comparisons 
    > of published and forthcoming XML transaction protocols) with a view 
    > toward guidance for application architects;
    > * Support and consider decisions about choice of appropriate 
    > technologies (e.g. use of reliable messaging and simpler protocols 
    > rather than transactional termination protocols);
    > * Place OASIS technologies in a broader context of competing or 
    > complementary specifications (e.g. relating OASIS work to the variety of 
    > published reliable messaging specifications);
    > * Consider alternative approaches to transaction management (e.g. local 
    > rollback versus compensation-based protocols);
    > * Compare reliability techniques for environmental models containing 
    > benign threats versus malign threats;
    > * Consider techniques for ensuring accountability of origin and receipt;
    > * Discuss the impact of digital signatures and encryption on reliability 
    > techniques.
    > 
    > OASIS will publish proceedings of the symposium. Authors should arrange 
    > for any necessary releases for publication prior to submission of their 
    > proposal.
    > 
    > To submit a proposal, please send the following information by email to 
    > symposium@oasis-open.org:
    > 
    > * The full contact details (name, affiliation, email, phone, postal 
    > address) of one presenter who will act as the primary contact for the 
    > proposal or panel discussion;
    > * The full list of authors;
    > * A 1-page abstract outlining the subject and key points of your 
    > proposal, panel discussion or tutorial.
    > 
    > All submissions will be acknowledged.
