Web Services Architect Survey Results

Peter Fletcher

Printer-friendly version

We recently ran a survey, asking readers to answer a few questions about themselves and their involvement with Web Services. The survey ran from 22 May - 19 June 2002, and we received 775 responses.

On completion of the survey, readers were given a link to one of our PDF papers, Web Services and Virtual Enterprises, by Setrag Koshafian. This survey was intended as a follow-up to the one we held in April, and was designed to reflect the profile of our readership, and the current adoption rate of Web Services. We welcome your comments, and suggestions for future topics, surveys and questions. Please email us at feedback@webservicesarchitect.com.

All four questions required an answer for the successful completion of the survey.
