Yesterday afternoon (7/13/11; for some reason this didn’t post when I hit the publish button) I delivered my presentation at the 3rd Annual DoD SOA & Semantic Technology Symposium. I’m certainly in no position to objectively judge, but it seemed to me that it went very well. I had several questions that seemed like they were genuinely curious about the subject.

More importantly, from a purely mercenary point of view, is that this counted as my second publication on the road to completing my dissertation. Two down, and two or three more to go!

Now I need to get to work on the rest of my research. The first thing I need to focus on is probably some measure of Quality of Service. It certainly won’t be fully fleshed out, but I at least need a placeholder. But for now, a good night’s sleep would do me a world of good.
