| Achieve semantic interoperability in a SOA |
Mei Y. Selvage
Dan Wolfson
Bob Zurek
Ed Kahan
Semantic interoperability is often overlooked or an afterthought in the development of a SOA. Application and data architects may have difficulty making informed architectural decisions about it. This article unveils the mysteries of semantic interoperability in a SOA context. We will first walk through the semantic spectrum, and then discuss the anti-patterns, patterns and best practices of semantic interoperability.

| Developing Web Applications in a Clustered Environment Using WLST and BEA Workshop |
| A development environment typically consists of a single-server J2EE container for unit testing Web and enterprise J2EE applications. In contrast a production environment is far more likely to be a complex, clustered configuration. Problems discovered during production-level testing often require looping back to the development team for modification of the Web or enterprise application. Many of these issues can be caught earlier in the cycle by having the development team perform unit testing against a clustered environment. This tutorial presents a straightforward way for developers to try their applications in a cluster by utilizing the WebLogic Scripting Tool (WLST) to automatically provision applications into this environment.

| Content Personalization: Planning and Implementation |
| Content personalization seems simple: Certain users should be able to access certain content while others should not. The concept, however, is deceivingly complex. While you may be tempted to jump in and start assigning entitlements to users based on arbitrary classifications, taking the time to properly classify users and content with an extensible model will go a long way in meeting your personalization needs far into the future. Classifying distinct users and content is a challenge. How can you best classify users such that you can easily and accurately target broad and finely focused audiences? How can you minimize the administrative overhead of maintaining the classification information of both users and content? To what level of granularity should the content be divided to support personalization? Finally, how can all this be implemented with BEA WebLogic Portal 8.1? Content personalization is certainly complex, but by logically tackling its issues, it need not be complicated.

| New Federation Features in WebLogic Portal 9.2 |
by Alex Toussaint
A services-oriented architecture approach to building applications improves productivity, agility, and speed for both business and IT. To help achieve these benefits, BEA WebLogic Portal supports industry-standard technology for publishing and consuming portlets that incorporate user interaction with the service functional logic. The portal federation capabilities of WebLogic Portal based on Web Services for Remote Portlets (WSRP) technology enables a fabric of distributed enterprise portal services that can be combined easily to enable the business to respond quickly and deliver optimal user experiences for portal audiences.

| Introduction to the WebLogic Diagnostics Framework (WLDF) |
by Rebecca Sly
The WebLogic Diagnostics Framework (WLDF) gives administrators and IT managers the ability to analyze their server operating environment using a set of components that generate information from WebLogic servers and the resources, including applications, deployed on the servers. The resulting data can then be gathered for analysis, and later persisted for long-term storage. This information (usually generated by MBeans) can be used to diagnose and resolve issues, monitor and maintain a history of events, carry out performance tuning, and perform many other useful tasks for a system administrator.

| An IMS Application Example Based on SIP Servlets and VoiceXML |
by David Burke and Darragh O'Flanagan
The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is the 3rd Generation Partnership Project' s (3GPP) vision for a converged telecommunications architecture that merges cellular and Internet technologies to uniformly deliver voice, video, and data on a single network. Currently one of the hottest topics in telecom, IMS is rapidly becoming the architecture of choice for operators who wish to upgrade their existing cellular and fixed-line networks.

| SOA: Are We Reinventing the Wheel? |
by Nick Simha
If you have been in the IT field for a while, you can' t help but get the feeling of déjà vu when you hear vendors pitching new technologies. If the buzz and hype around Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), makes your head spin, you are not alone. In a recent meeting, one participant who used to code in COBOL asked what was different between SOA and what he did with COBOL copybooks. I have never used COBOL copybooks, but having seen many technologies come and go, I can empathize with the question. In this article, I explain the primary motivation behind SOA and how technology has evolved to support SOA. I will keep my discussion at a conceptual level and refer to other publications at the end for those who want to delve deeper.
