3 Services Oriented Architecture (SOA) Collaboration Market Opportunities, Market Forecasts, and Market Strategies, SOA collaborations are the result, the outcome of creating reusable components of code. The ability to reuse code means it is accessible from a repository creates the ability to form collaborative business process modules. The SOA reusable components can be recombined in many useful ways over many years. SOA collaborations represent a new market, poised for significant growth. SOA collaborations are used to implement process. The collaborations are industry specific. They are built from SOA components that do a particular task to implement process. The SOA component repositories are the correlate to databases used for information. SOA component repositories permit the reuse of code. The code is used to build process. Process is sequence. Information is stored in databases, but it is used as process, process imposes sequence and flow. A sequence of events tied together with calculations and movement of information from one location to another, form an application. The ability to form a SOA collaboration from component repositories and move information from one siloed application to another is implemented as process flow. Process and sequence depend on integration and SOA systems in an engine, evolved to achieve the reuse of existing software code components. The market forces pushing the inevitability of widespread increases in the quantities of data being processed relate to the explosion of information being processed in every industry, electron patient records, electronic banking, electronic stock trading, and the electronic retail chains evolving. Flexible systems implemented as SOA need to be easy to implement. SOA implementation of process from desktop icons using business models that describe flow, calculations, and sequence represents a new wave of computing and automated process. Worldwide Services Oriented Architecture (SOA) market forecasts are $1.6 billion in 2006 are anticipated to reach $15.4 billion by 2013.

20 ABOUT THE COMPANY WINTERGREEN RESEARCH, HAS A UNIQUE RESEARCH STRATEGY THAT RELATES TO IDENTIFYING MARKET TRENDS THROUGH READING AND INTERVIEWING OPINION LEADERS. BY READING THE ELECTRONIC EQUIVALENT OF 40 FEET OF PAPER, WINTERGREEN RESEARCH SENIOR ANALYSTS CAN LEARN A LOT MORE ABOUT MARKETS, A LOT FASTER THAN CAN BE LEARNED THROUGH EXPENSIVE SURVEYS AND FOCUS GROUPS. THINKING ABOUT MARKET TRENDS IS A HIGH PRIORITY AT WINTERGREEN RESEARCH. AS WITH ALL RESEARCH, THE VALUE PROPOSITION FOR COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS COMES FROM INTELLECTUAL INPUT. IT IS A LUXURY REALLY, AVAILABLE TO ONLY A VERY FEW PEOPLE, TO BE ABLE TO GATHER INFORMATION, LOTS OF INFORMATION FROM READING MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF CONTENT, AND THEN TRYING TO MAKE SENSE OF THAT CONTENT. THE ABILITY TO THINK ABOUT MARKET TRENDS IS ENHANCED BY DOING IT OVER AND OVER FOR MANY DIFFERENT MARKETS. THAT IS WHAT WINTERGREEN RESEARCH IS ALL ABOUT: READING AND THINKING IS AN ESSENTIAL ASPECT OF COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS. TALKING TO OPINION LEADERS IS THE THIRD ESSENTIAL ASPECT OF PRODUCING GOOD, RELIABLE DATA. WINTERGREEN RESEARCH, FOUNDED IN 1985, PROVIDES STRATEGIC MARKET ASSESSMENTS IN TELECOMMUNICATIONS, COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT, HEALTH CARE, INTERNET AND ADVANCED COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY. INDUSTRY REPORTS FOCUS ON OPPORTUNITIES THAT EXPAND EXISTING MARKETS OR DEVELOP MAJOR NEW MARKETS. THE REPORTS ASSESS NEW PRODUCT AND SERVICE POSITIONING STRATEGIES, NEW AND EVOLVING TECHNOLOGIES, AND TECHNOLOGICAL IMPACT ON PRODUCTS, SERVICES, AND MARKETS. MARKET SHARES ARE PROVIDED. LEADING MARKET PARTICIPANTS ARE PROFILED, AND THEIR MARKETING STRATEGIES, ACQUISITIONS, AND STRATEGIC ALLIANCES ARE DISCUSSED. THE PRINCIPALS OF WINTERGREEN RESEARCH HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN ANALYSIS AND FORECASTING OF INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES IN TELECOMMUNICATIONS AND ADVANCED COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY MARKETS FOR OVER 30 YEARS.
