More Information
Summary:Service-Oriented Programming (SOP) is a relatively new programming paradigm that supports the development of new software applications using existing services as building blocks. SOP has gained significant popularity in industry as it increases software reuse and productivity. As the SOP paradigm can improve modern software development, the presenters have created a course-module based approach for incorporating SOP into Computer Science (CS) and Software Engineering (SE) curricula; a course module is a distinct curricular unit such as a lab or teaching component that an instructor may incorporate into an existing course typically without requiring formal curricular approval. SOP course modules have been developed for inclusion in standard courses in many CS and SE programs; for example, an introductory SOP course module in a CS2 course while advanced modules for courses such as Programming Language Concepts, Software Engineering, or Web Services. This workshop will present basic concepts and techniques of SOP and describe how the course-module approach toward SOP can be adapted for the participants' own teaching. The typical participant would be a faculty member with some background in programming, and is interested in learning more about SOP but does need not to have prior web service programming experience.
