The Reference Model for SOA is an OASIS standard that provides a vocabulary for service-oriented applications, alowing people to achieve a common understanding when they talk about services. Michael Siefel (pictured), principal of Reliable Software, will be giving a session at SOAWorld 2007 explain how to use the reference model in discussions with vendors, stakeholders, development staff, business analysts and others that participate in the development of services.

"This will permit everyone to speak the same language when planning, architecting, developing, and using a SOA," Steifel notes.

Stiefel consults on software architecture and development, and the alignment of information technology with business goals, his current work involves training in distributed applications development, software best practices, in .NET, C#, Web services, C++, and SQL Server. He also advises on IT strategy and planning, including budgeting, hiring, and growth management, and designs and implementats service-based applications including Web services.

Currently a member of the OASIS Technical Committee developing a core SOA Reference Model and related Reference Architectures, in July 2006 Stiefel was named a Microsoft Visual Developer Solutions Architect MVP. He is a Visiting Scholar at Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the Science, Technology and Society Program where his research and teaching focus is the teaching of engineering to high school and undergraduate students.
