The advent of SOA and standard-base Web services together with Internet based
delivery models has provided the essential base for facilitating new software
platform innovations. One of these innovations is a breakthrough software
componentization technique that we have coined Service Oriented Programming
(SOP). While SOA focuses on communication between systems using
“service operations,” SOP provides a new technique to build agile
application modules using in-process, native service operations as the
“units of assembly.” Instead of using services just to go across
systems, SOP provides a model-driven technique that uses an in-memory image
of services to run an entire application. Since these in-memory services can
transparently externalize throu... (more)
