Students will have knowledge of the principles of design and implementation of component-based systems with SOA. They will be able to actively participate in the design and implementation of the such system in the Oracle SOA Suite 11g platform.

• Basic knowledge and skills from the "Introduction to Software Engineering" course, particularly modelling skills.
• To be able to understand documents in XML.

Syllabus of lectures:

1. Introduction: Structure and objectives of the course, organization of projects. Service-oriented architecture (SOA): SOA as an approach to enterprise information systems integration, "Oracle SOA Maturity Model", implementation standards of SOA, SOA principles, and integration requirements for SOA.
2. "SOA Governance" and service life-cycle: Service life-cycle management, management of individual services, "SOA Governance". Design of services and SOA implementation: Service and its documentation, services layers and their responsibilities, XML schemas, service interface design and its description in WSDL.
3. Oracle SOA Suite: Introduction to the Oracle SOA Suite 11g platform, components for service implementation, component-based systems as SOA, synchronous and asynchronous patterns of components communication, "Enterprise Manager" responsibilities, service adapters and their different types.
4. Component-based Systems as SOA: Service component architecture (SCA), introduction into components and component-based systems, components in SCA, "Service Data Objects", an example of design of a component-based system as SOA in Oracle JDeveloper.
5. Systems Management with SOA - explanation and typical activities of SOA management, an example of usage of the "Enterprise Manager" tool, deployment of systems with SOA, testing of SOA and message-flow monitoring between services.
6. Services Integration and the "Mediator" Component: Services integration issues and utilisation of the "Mediator" component, business events in "Event Driven Architecture" and "Event Delivery Network", the "Mediator" component, routing rules.
7. Service Orchestration and the "BPEL" Component: Business processes and service orchestration, BPEL (Business Process Execution Language) and its usage in the service orchestration, an example of BPEL process created in Oracle JDeveloper, description of activities, relations and service calls in a BPEL process.
8. Services Coordination, Interaction Patterns, Exception Handling - implementation of concurrent processing by the "Flow" activity, request/response interaction pattern, processing of messages and handling of warnings by the "Pick" activity, loops in the "While" activity and the "Wait" activity in a BPEL process, exception handling in SOA, the exceptions in synchronous and asynchronous service calls, throwing and catching exceptions in a BPEL process.
9. Transactions in SOA: Transactions issues in business processes, transactions with services database adapters, access to "Service Data Objects" inside of a transaction, transactions endings in BPEL processes.
10. Integration of User Interfaces in a Business Process and the "Human Task" Component: Interaction with users in a business process, a workflow as a service, utilising of the "Human Task" component in SOA and its integration into a BPEL process, user forms, setting the list

• Submission of an individual project's results and their final defence.
• A written test taken individually.
