What does the OASIS Semantic Execution Environment (SEE) Technical Committee do?
The OASIS SEE TC proposes that a standards-based execution environment for Semantic Web Services can provide a platform for service oriented architectures addressing the problems of data and behavior interoperability between autonomous and heterogeneous business entities. The OASIS SEE TC will provide a reference architecture including component interfaces, semantic descriptions of the component interfaces and the components themselves, and the messaging mechanism to allow these components to communicate with each other. The OASIS SEE TC strongly recognizes the relationship of Semantic Web Services to Grid computing and aims to incorporate functionality required by Grid computing into the SEE architecture. SEE infrastructure is based on the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) paradigm and consists of a set of loosely coupled collaborating software components acting together in an open environment. We identify SOA to become the leading software paradigm for SWS infrastructure, however,
