Short Write-up on Talk:  
Service Oriented Software engineering (SOSE) is the branch of software engineering predicated upon the notion of "service", as a first class software unit for software construction. In this talk, we shall explore the upcoming area of SOSE,  in terms of some of the basic constructs for the different life cycle stages of SOSE based software construction: Service and Process oriented requirements engineering, Service based design, Service Contract based Development, Service Based Testing, Service Evolution and Change Management. We shall discuss the key research dimensions in each of the associated areas, and the relation of SOSE to erstwhile paradigms in software engineering like Agile Processes, MDA, BPM and OOAD.
