I work in software research and developement in the aerospace industry. We're assisting a project where they are interested in looking at web services in an embedded system. This would most likely be WSDL/XML/SOAP.

We're still at the stage of developing the actual requirements for the services, as well as a notional API.
I'd be interested in either papers on the general subject (particularly recent ones) or open-source projects that are targeted towards this sort of application.
I have found some, like this one from John Canosa:
