MDA Journal: Semantic Interoperability for SOA

MDA Journal: Semantic Interoperability for SOA
In his June MDA Journal Column, David Frankel discussed how a new organization named BIAN (Banking Industry Architecture Network) (www.bian.org) is defining standards for service-oriented architecture in the banking industry and is using techniques to promote semantic interoperability. In this month`s Column, Dave explains how BIAN is using these techniques, which were designed for data modeling, and is extrapolating them in order to apply them to service modeling.
