I am working on my Diploma Thesis in the SAP Campus Management (CM) team. The topic is a research on how new Enterprise (Web) Services can be used to support new ways of user interaction (e. g. "Web 2.0") in CM.

In Web 2.0 it is all about the interactivity of the World Wide Web: Wikis for collaborative publishing, Mashups to create new services by combining existing feeds and services, RSS (Really Simple Syndication) to subscribe online feeds, etc.

In CM I want to identify new Enterprise (Web) Services which support some of these new ways of user interaction. To give you an idea of the kind of services I am looking for here are a few examples:

  • A service which returns the timetable of a student/instructor for a specified period (e.g. in iCal format) associated with a calendar integration (like Microsoft Outlook or Google Calendar).
  • Services returning information on the academic structure to support external listings of programs and courses.
  • Services which gives students the possibility to find fellow students booked on the same modules and living in the neighbourhood.
  • Services returning relevant data for the students’ ePortfolio.
  • Services providing “Google Maps” data for buildings and rooms.


  • There are likely many services which can be used to leverage new ways of user experience with CM. Please help me identifying those services and scenarios. Just post your ideas and comments as feedback to this blog.

    I’m looking forward to your ideas and input.

    Thanks in advance,
    Daniel
