Conclusion
Roy T. Fielding is the Chief Scientist at Day Software Holding AG and supervises the modernization development of the infrastructure which the World Wide Web is based on. As one of the first modern Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/1.1) architects, co-author of internet standards for HTTP and Uniform Resource Identifiers (URI), as well as the founder of various Open Source software projects,amongst others, the Apache HTTP server project, his name is intrinsically tied to the development of the World Wide Web infrastructure. In his keynote address, Roy T. Fielding will pursue the question of how individual Java applets can be replaced by friendlier Web application delivery interfaces.
Roy T. Fielding is Chief Scientist for Day Software, co-founder of the Apache HTTP Server Project, and former chairman of the Apache Software Foundation. He defined the REST architectural style and wrote the standards for HTTP and URI.
