The Contextual Service Oriented Analysis and Design
Résumé
Since the beginning of the Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) paradigm, with its various implementation
technologies such as Web services, the focus of industrial communities has been on providing tools that would
allow seamless and fexible application integration within and across enterprises’ boundaries. In this paper,
the authors present a Context-based, Service-oriented Modeling and Analysis (CSMA) method that guides
service engineers in their choices of identifying, defning, and analyzing adaptable business services. The
proposed method is business centric and comprises a set of structured steps grouped in two phases. Besides,
the CSMA embraces Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) principles to model and refne adaptable business
services models in the PIM level. The results from a pilot validation of CSMA for SOA enablement of a realistic
enterprise training solutions are also presented.
