“…SOA Type and Output Notation. Web service descriptions (7,30.4%) and programming languages (9, 39.1%) are predominant for single service, whilst programming languages is for SOA system (16, 31.4%). Remarkably, but also expected, service orchestration is predominant for Service composition (23, 51.1%).…”

Context: Model-Driven Development (MDD) and Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) are two challenging research areas in software engineering. MDD is about improving software development whilst SOA is a service-based conceptual development style, therefore investigating the available proposals in the literature to use MDD when developing SOA may be insightful. However, no studies have been found with this purpose.Objective: This work aims at assessing the state of the art in MDD for SOA systems. It mainly focuses on: what are the characteristics of MDD approaches that support SOA; what types of SOA are supported; how do they handle non-functional requirements.Method: We conducted a mapping study following a rigorous protocol. We identified the representative set of venues that should be included in the study. We applied a search string over the set of selected venues. As result, 129 papers were selected and analysed (both frequency analysis and correlation analysis) with respect to the defined classification criteria derived from the research questions. Threats to validity were identified and mitigated whenever possible.Results: The analysis allows us to answer the research questions. We highlight: 1) predominance of papers from Europe and written by researchers only; 2) predominance of top-down transformation in software development activities; 3) inexistence of consolidated methods; 4) significant percentage of works without tool support; 5) SOA systems and service compositions more targeted than single services and SOA enterprise systems; 6) limited use of metamodels; 7) very limited use of NFRs; 8) limited application in real cases.Conclusion: This mapping study does not just provide the state of the art in the topic, but also identifies several issues that deserve investigation in the future, for instance the need of methods for activities other than software development (e.g., migration) or the need of conducting more real case studies.

Context: Quality of Service (QoS) is a major issue in various web service related activities. Quality models have been proposed as the engineering artefact to provide a common framework of understanding for QoS, by defining the quality factors that apply to web service usage. Objective: The goal of this study is to evaluate the current state of the art of the proposed quality models for web services, specifically: (1) which are these proposals and how are they related; (2) what are their structural characteristics; (3) what quality factors are the most and least addressed; and (4) what are their most consolidated definitions. Method: We have conducted a systematic mapping by defining a robust protocol that combines automatic and manual searches from different sources. We used a rigorous method to elicitate the keywords from the research questions and a selection criteria to retrieve the final papers to evaluate. We have adopted the ISO/IEC 25010 standard to articulate our analysis. Results: We have evaluated 47 different quality models from 65 papers that fulfilled the selection criteria. By analyzing in depth these quality models, we have: 1) distributed the proposals along the time dimension and identified their relationships; 2) analysed their size (visualizing the number of nodes and levels) and definition coverage (as indicator of quality of the proposals); 3) quantified the coverage of the different ISO/IEC 25010 quality factors by the proposals; 4) identified the quality factors that appeared in at least 30% of the surveyed proposals and provided the most consolidated definitions for them. Conclusions: We believe that this panoramic view on the anatomy of the quality models for web services may be a good reference for prospective researchers and practitioners in the field and especially may help avoiding the definition of new proposals that do not align with current research.

“…DAmbrogio [5] has proposed a meta model of web service, which include quality of services(QoS). They suggested reliability, availability and access control at service level, network related QoS attributes at port level, message related QoS at message level and operation latency and operation demand at operation level.…”
