Abstract
Service-oriented computing is replacing the object-oriented computing paradigm to
become the main paradigm for software development and programming. This talk
discusses Service-oriented computing paradigm, its impact on the software
development and software application, as well as its impact on the career path of
students in computer science and technology. Research issues and sample projects at
Arizona State University will be discussed.
