Carlo Innocenti (Minollo), DataDirect

 	Using XQuery to process and integrate XML, relational, web services,
 	and legacy data

 	This session provides an overview of the XQuery language, how XQuery
 	can be leveraged in complex data integration scenarios and how XQuery
 	can easily fit into various architectures including today's SOAs.
 	Live demos will provide hands-on experience about the power and
 	flexibility of the XQuery language.

 	At the end of the session, you will have answers to these and more
 	questions:


 	Can I use XQuery to query large XML documents?
 	Can I use XQuery to query non-XML documents?
 	Why would I use XQuery instead of Java?
 	How do I get started with XQuery?
 	How can I modularize my XQuery?
 	How is XQuery different from XSLT?

 	UBL 2.0

 	UBL increases interoperability in electronic commerce by standardizing
 	generic business messages. The UBL 1.0 Standard, released in November
 	2004, includes an XML library of standard data components and a set
 	of basic business schemas (purchase order, invoice, shipping notice,
 	etc.) together with a wealth of supporting materials to aid the
 	implementer. UBL 2.0, approved as an OASIS Standard in November
 	2006, incorporates the experience of a number of government
 	agencies in 23 new document types that fill out the basic
 	order-to-invoice process of UBL 1.0 to provide a complete
 	XML solution for electronic procurement. This presentation
 	will introduce UBL, explain its relationship to ebXML (ISO 15000),
 	and explore the implications of a standard electronic business
 	language.

 	About the presenter

 	Sun Microsystems Distinguished Engineer Jon Bosak organized and
 	led the working group that created XML, subsequently serving for
 	two years as chair of the XML Coordination Group of the World
 	Wide Web Consortium. He is a long-time member of OASIS, the
 	Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information
 	Standards, and he chaired the committee that developed the
 	OASIS process for the definition of industry-specific XML
 	markup standards. He has also served on the Advisory Board
 	of the Electronic Business XML initiative (ebXML), a joint
 	project of OASIS and the United Nations body for Trade
 	Facilitation and Electronic Business (UN/CEFACT); on the
 	Solution Provider Board of RosettaNet, the leading XML-based
 	supply-chain organization for the electronics industry; and
 	on the Board of Governors of the Electronics Industry Data
 	Exchange Association (EIDX), a member section of CompTIA.
 	He currently chairs the OASIS Universal Business Language
 	Technical Committee. Articles by Jon Bosak can be found
