Knowledge
The overall objective of the course is to introduce some of the main aspects of the design, analysis, and development of software services.
Assessment criteria of knowledge
Methods:
- Final oral exam
- Final laboratory practical demonstration
Further information:
To get the credits, each student has to develop a project (FAQ) before undergoing an oral examination.
The oral examination will consist of two parts:
(1) A discussion of the project, in which each student will also be asked to make a short demo and to implement a small change in the project
(2) Questions on the topics of the syllabus.

Syllabus
After introducing the core standards of Web services, the course focuses on service composition as one of the key aspects of service-oriented architectures, and the use of workflow languages supporting the specification and the execution of business processes is illustrated. The role of business process analysis is discussed, and some examples of modelling and analyses of business processes are illustrated. The advantages of enhanced service descriptions including policies and behavioural informaton, and the role of service agreements are also discussed. Finally, some of the currently emerging technologies - in particular RESTful and cloud-based services- are introduced. The course includes a "hands-on" lab devoted to experiment the design, analysis, development and deployment of simple Web services.
