"An Architecture for Service-Oriented Architectures" talk (mp3 file)

We have secured a bootleg audio file (.mp3) of Jim Waldo's
rousing keynote talk at the May NY Java SIG meeting.
Don't ask how ;-)  -- just enjoy it!

Jim's talk is titled "An Architecture for Service-Oriented
Architectures" and it truly is a 'must listen to'. Seriously,
you'll be glad you did. The abstract of the talk is below.

An Architecture for Service-Oriented Architectures
  - Jim Waldo

Service-oriented architectures are all the rage, offering
high levels of code reuse, modularity, and agility. But very
few systems that actually implement such an architecture exist.
The simple fact is that there is very little discussion of
what the underlying architecture needs to be that will enable
such service-oriented systems.

This talk will describe the Jini networking system, one such
architecture based on the Java environment. While this system
does not enable all of the advantages promised of a service-
oriented architecture, it also enables some others that are
somewhat more surprising, such as much higher levels of
reliability and the ability to change, upgrade, and extend
the system without there being any service interruption. We
will look at a couple of examples of these systems, and see
what it is about the architecture that allows these properties
to emerge.
