    Real Estate Science Abstract 

    Last week, I submitted a three sentence proposal to present at the Real Estate Educators Association conference which will take place at Morehead University, Kentucky this upcoming August. The topic of my proposal is on Real Estate Science and why the industry needs a new scientific field of study.

    Below is the full abstract for the upcoming paper entitled, “Real Estate Science: The Rise of a New Scientific Field of Study”:


    The Internet and World Wide Web have been immensely influential factors on the real estate industry. From sales brokerages to daily activities by salespeople, computers are involved in every facet of today’s real estate businesses’ projects and transactions. With millions of mobile and office devices connected to the Internet, the real estate industry has fully embraced and embedded technology within every layer of itself. Thus, one can say that technology has transformed the real estate industry from a one-dimensional industry centered solely around financial analysis into a mission critical, technology dependent industry overnight.


    To better understand how the Internet and the World Wide Web have affected the Real Estate Industry, this paper proposes a new scientific field of study to help analyze, study, theorize and document relevant scientific discoveries so the real estate industry may continue to grow with necessary efficiency and technical relevancy. This paper discusses the needs and justifications for a new academic discipline called Real Estate Science (Re-Sci) which combines the theories and concepts from the Real Estate and Computer Science academic fields, respectively. It also investigates other industries which have already embraced Computer Science as an academic component by comparing and contrasting their industry characteristics and evolutions. In addition, current trends and potential use cases will be presented to demonstrate why Real Estate Science is necessary to define and continue to evolve into a beneficial academic research area for everyone involved in the real estate industry presently and into the future.

    If accepted, I will also publish the paper on my papers website.

    Academic and Scientific Papers Website 

    This past weekend I worked on publishing my science paper presented at ARES on the Multiple Listing Service Network Protocol to a new site for my academic and scientific papers.

    Following up the MLSN paper, I will next publish my nonprofit term paper on RDASE: The Anatomy of the Research Development Activity Service Engine. This paper’s aim is to develop a workflow framework for the GR8C covering new research, publishing papers, and grant submissions.

    Moving forward, I have started preliminary research on my next paper, Real Estate Science: The Rise of a New Scientific Field of Study. This paper will be submitted to the 2013 ARES conference which will be held in Kona, Hawaii (aka my hometown). In addition, I plan to submit a second paper to ARES either on Real Estate Transport Protocol (RETP) or Real Estate Geographic Names System (REGNS).

    A Nonprofit Case Study: OpenShift, JBoss, and Amazon Web Services 

    Last night, I submitted my abstract to the Red Hat JBoss Summit 2012 call for proposals. Below is my abstract:

    A Nonprofit Case Study: OpenShift, JBoss, and Amazon Web Services

    In the real estate industry, buyers and sellers are constantly researching listing property information such as status, price, and location. A Multiple Listing Service (MLS) is a localized database which association members, salespersons and broker salespersons, access to update their clients with relative property information. However, this process has become slow and outdated because of the Internet and the Web.

    The Global Real Estate And Technology Consortium (GR8C) is a scientific nonprofit located in Orlando, Florida. Its mission is to promote the education, operation, and use of the World Wide Multiple Listing Service (WWMLS) to its fullest potential by developing protocols, specifications, and standards for the benefit of all people throughout the world.

    This case study will provide a low-level look at the Multiple Listing Service Network Protocol (MLSN), a new request-response messaging protocol developed by the GR8C for querying property information on user reserved port 32801. The session will discuss how OpenShift is used to build, deploy, and monitor configured JBoss Application Servers as MLSN Servers to Amazon’s Web Services Platform. In addition, the presenter will share key lessons learned and technical issues dealing with OpenShift. Finally, an MLSN client to MLSN server messaging demonstration will be provided.

    Happy First Birthday WWMLS 

    Last Saturday marked the first birthday for the World Wide MLS (WWMLS). Since then, the follow progress has been made towards WWMLS:

    As MLSN is presented to different groups such as academics and technologists, I am confident with the two upcoming presentations in 2012, especially in St. Petersburg at ARES, that the MLSN Protocol and WWMLS framework will alter others’ thought processes of not only the dysfunctional aspect of today’s legacy MLS, but also future directions in how real estate consumers interact and expect a specific quality of service (QoS) from real estate professionals. The main intention is integrate WWMLS in every aspect of the future of real estate.

    Moving foward, the second phase for WWMLS will be the introduction of the messaging language called Real Estate Metadata Language (Remetal). This XML language will be used to markup properties in a self-describing, yet simple language for sending and receiving between the main OpenMLS Registry and accredited OpenMLS Registrars. I plan to propose Remetal to additional call for papers (CFP) on the academic and technical levels in 2012.

    The third yet most important phase will be for the Real Estate Transport Protocol (RETP). This protocol defines the type of messaging, the distribution channels, error correction system, etc. Again, RETP papers will be proposed along with exhibitions at national and if necessary global science fairs.

    The future of real estate is bright and changing.

    And as the cliche goes, please stay tuned…

    MLSN Abstract for ARES Conference 

    Today I submitted my abstract for the American Real Estate Society (ARES) conference in April next year:

    Title: MLSN: A Request and Response Internet Protocol for Real Estate Property Listings

    Abstract:

    Sellers list their properties with real estate professionals who enter property information into private databases called Multiple Listing Services (MLS). These MLS’s attempt to store and index data listings with serialized numbers that only members of the local real estate association have access to query, insert, and update. In the United States alone, there are over 900 MLS’s which unfortunately create redundant, localized MLS numbers causing confusion over specific properties and their respective listing information on the Internet. These duplicated MLS numbers can be anywhere from five to ten digits long or more relaying no meaningful or geographical information to real estate professionals, sellers, and buyers alike.


    This paper proposes and discusses a new internet protocol called Multiple Listing Service Network (MLSN) Protocol for registering, assigning, and distributing property listings on the Internet. Similar to the WHOIS protocol, MLSN is an application publicly available on the Internet, however instead of port 43, MLSN is accessible from reserved port 32801. The numbering scheme is comprised of two parts separated by an ‘@’ symbol: (1) a triple-dotted notation of three decimal integers ranging from 1 to 65,535 and (2) a double-dotted notation number composed of a postal code and country code standardized by ISO 3166-1. Taking in consideration for expired listings, MLSN offers a reusable feature which allows assigning a new, double-dotted notation number to a preexisting triple-dotted number thereby creating a new MLSN property listing number. Together with a standard protocol and unique numbering schema, MLSN provides a uniform resource locator (URL) to users for conducting a more efficient and convenient real estate property searching on the Internet.

    Keywords: internet, multiple listing service, protocol, internationalization
