We had a great Panel Discussion session on August 10, 2006.
Co-Moderators Mr. Duane Nickull (Adobe) and Mr. Rex Brooks
(Starbourne Communications), SOA experts themselves, also put
together a very knowledgeable panel that included Mr. Ron
Schmelzer (Zapthink), Dr. Ken Laskey (MITRE) and Ms. Rebekah Metz
(Booz Allen Hamilton). (01)
The session was, again, very well attended. Our appreciations go
out to our moderators and panelists who had put in all the work
making this session happen, and for sharing with us their
experience and insights. And, as always, thanks to all the
participants who joint us and contributed their perspectives too. (02)
Proceedings of today's session are captured at our wiki page, at:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ConferenceCall_2006_08_10 (03)
In particular, full audio recording of the session (along with
the panelists' slides) is now available too - see:

and are available as telephone playback (for 10 days), as mp3
download and podcast. The latter will remain in our archives,
contributing to yet another artifact of community's rich body of
knowledge that we share with everyone. Thanks again, to all, who
took part in this. (04)

>> *Abstract* (by Duane Nickull & Rex Brooks):
>>
>> The goal of this session is to explore what role ontologies and
>> taxonomies play within a service oriented architecture environment.
>> Ontologies and taxonomies can be employed in service oriented
>> environments in numerous ways, through ontologies of domains, for
>> instance health informatics or plastics manufacturing, or taxonomies
>> of services or service categories within domains, so we want to
>> explore how ontologies and taxonomies can improve the availability and
>> performance of services in these roles. 3 guest speakers will each
