Improving Rapid Emergency Response Systemswith Integrated Web Service Architecture: Semantic Interoperability, Service Orientation & Event Driven Architectures Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference
Conclusions & Challenges • EGov REQUIRES Open Standards • OMB Mandates Adoption of Voluntary Consensus Standards • Standards MUST Meet Use-Case-based Requirements • SOA for EGov MUST be Practical • Standards for Intra-Agency/Dept., Inter-Agency/Dept. & Inter-Jurisdiction Needed • Standards SHOULD Provide Conformance Criteria & Testing if Possible • Results SHOULD be Measurable • Regular Pulse Checks & Satisfaction Surveys Needed • SOA for EGov SHOULD Develop Culture of Continuous Improvement—Steady, Consistent, Dependable • Event-Driven Architecture Necessary for Emergency Response Systems • MUST be Designed with Specific Message Exchange Patterns Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference
Collaboratory Begins with “SWANS” Conference – 7-8 April 2005 • Handful of Companies Loosely Organized by SOAP-Based Web Services. • Verizon Backbone from Municipal to State to Federal Jurisdictions Supports Network. • Alert and Warning Systems Connected to E911 Telephone Geocode System to VoiceXML Automated Notification Application • OASIS Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) 1.0 Introduced. Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference
Collaboratory Pilot Expanded at SICoP Public Meeting at the DoN CIO XML Business Standards Council 20 October 2005 • SOA Introduced Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference
Collaboratory Pilot Expanded at SICoP Public Meeting at the DoN CIO XML Business Standards Council • Companies Added Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference

Collaboratory Grows, Evolves at 4th Semantic Interop for E-Gov Conference • Practical Use of Ontology Highlighted Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference
Collaboratory Pilot Continues to Evolve at 1st SOA for E-Government Conference 23 May 2006 • SOA Registry-Repository Added Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference
Collaboratory Pilot Continues to Evolve at 1st SOA for E-Government Conference • SOA Registry-Repository Explained Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference
What are ‘Open’ Standards &Why are ‘Open” Standards Important? • OPEN Means Openly Developed • Public Visibility From Inception • Open Charter-Writing Process • Goals, Objectives, Audience & Principles Explicit • Open Decision-Making Processes • All Documents, Minutes, Discussions, Email Lists Available • Votes Recorded and Posted • OPEN Means Public Review & Comment • Public Review Invites Testing through Implementation • All Public Comments MUST be Addressed/Answered • OPEN Means Public Can Criticize, Stimulate Revisions Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference
Importance of Open StandardsOverview of OASIS Emergency Management Technical Committee • OASIS Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) 1.0 Approved March 2004 • OASIS CAP 1.1 Approved October 2005 • Lessons Learned: • Important to Provide Guidance for Implementation • Important to Develop Feedback Process for Next Versions • OASIS Emergency Data Exchange Language Evolves from CAP Experience Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference
Importance of Open StandardsOverview of OASIS Emergency Management Technical Committee • OASIS Emergency Data Exchange Language Distribution Element (EDXL-DE) 1.0 Approved May 2006 • EDXL-Hospital Availability Exchange (EDXL-HAVE) moving to 2nd 60-Day Public Review October 2007 • EDXL-Resource Messaging (EDXL-RM) Moving to 2nd 60-Day Public Review November-December 2007 Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference
Importance of Open StandardsOverview of OASIS Emergency Management Technical Committee • OASIS Emergency Data Exchange Language FAMILY Follows Pattern of ebXML, Web Services Security Specifications, and Others • EDXL Not Clearly Understood at Start • Standards Writing is also an Evolving Set of Practices • Need to Document Lessons Learned • EDXL Reference Information Model (EDXL-RIM) will include Lessons Learned and Formalize the Methods and Techniques Developed for EDXL-DE, EDXL-HAVE and EDXL-RM for Next EDXL Specifications Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference

Lessons in Building Standards from EDXL Family Evolution • Alerting and Warning • Lessons from CAP • In Absence of other Needed Standards, Practitioners WILL Attempt to USE Existing Standard for Needed Functions • Be Clear About WHAT a Standard CAN or IS INTENDED to do • Routing and Secure Network Considerations • Lessons from EDXL-DE • Develop Requirements Systematically with Practitioners & Subject Matter Experts • Carefully Select Use-Cases for Defining Requirements Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference
Lessons in Building Standards from EDXL Family Evolution • Reporting • Lessons from EDXL-HAVE • Resist Persuasive Arguments that ANY Candidate Specification is Ready for Approval as Standard • Start with Requirements from Use-Cases that can be Traced through Specification • Messaging (Event-Driven Message Exchange Patterns) • Lessons from EDXL-RM • Formalize Requirements in Separate Document (Started with a Candidate Specification, then Extracted Requirements) • Specifications are Concrete Expressions of Abstract Principles Improving Rapid Emergency First Response with SOA 4th SOA for E-Government Conference
