About the OASIS SOA-RM TC
The OASIS SOA Reference Model Technical Committee (OASIS SOA-RM TC) advances a core reference model to guide and foster the creation of specific, service-oriented architectures. The group is part of OASIS (Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards), a not-for-profit consortium that drives the development, convergence, and adoption of open standards for the global information society.
