Representational state transfer (REST) is a style of software architecture for distributed hypermedia systems such as the World Wide Web. As such, it is not strictly a method for building what are sometimes called "web services." The terms “representational state transfer” and “REST” were introduced in 2000 in the doctoral dissertation of Roy Fielding, one of the principal authors of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) specification.

The Home Zone in the PATS lab is starting to take form, and the Telenor R&I employees already meet here to share ideas or loosen up with a round of Wii Sports.

The course had participants from Høyskolen i Vestfold, Høyskolen i Bergen, Telenor R&I, Telenor Mobile and several summerstudents from NTNU. The course was held by Trolltech's Jørgen Lind (back, second from the left) and arranged by Trolltech's Knut Yrvin ( front, left) in cooperation with the PATS programme.

The participants are posing by Telenor Tyholt's artwork called "Penguin floating in eternal bliss". Maybe it's the Linux penguin? Maybe it's the bliss we will experience when using Linux phones in the future? ;)
