Today, great potential is envisaged for ERP systems in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and software vendors have been repackaging their ERP systems for SMEs with a recent focus on cloud-based systems. While cloud ERP offers the best solution for SMEs without the overheads of the huge investment and management costs that are associated with traditional ERP systems, the SME sector faces many challenges in their adoption. Traditional ERP studies have predominantly focused on large organizations, and gaps in the literature indicate that both vendor and consumer perspectives require more understanding with new technology offerings for SMEs. This paper describes some of the common challenges, such as cost effectiveness, alignment between software and business processes, customized governance and training, which form the major SME constraints for ERP system adoption. Due to the dynamic nature of SME businesses, best practice guidelines for an SME's ERP implementation could be arrived at through closer investigation of its business requirements in order to avoid misfits. This forms the main objective of the study. We identify key success factors of ERP implementation in an Australian SME as a case study. These target success factors are then compared to the actual outcomes achieved. Factors such as business process alignment with the ERP system, meeting customer and stakeholder needs and reducing recurring and maintenance costs were key to the success of ERP implementation for the Australian SME. In particular, the IT and business strategy alignment with a customer focus and flexible reporting features of ERP systems has resulted in business agility.

Abstract:The development and use of software based on cloud computing have been highlighted more and more nowadays. Software as a Service (SaaS) is considered as a trend for small, medium and large enterprises. However, SaaS brings some challenges concerning information security. In this context, we propose an approach based on Model-Driven Engineering (MDE), weaving models and security techniques for developing secure software as a service. An illustrative example helps to understand our proposed approach and demonstrates its feasibility and benefits.

“…While traditional software design and development processes create applications for deployment to a specific technology platform, MDA introduces higher levels of abstraction, enabling organizations to create models that are independent of any particular technology platform. The strength of MDA lies in the fact that it is based on widely used industry standards for visualizing, storing and exchanging software designs and models [16].  Contemporary approach to software engineering that used to achieve greater portability of software in cloud.…”

Model Driven Architecture and Cloud computing are among the most important paradigms in software service engineering now a days. As cloud computing continues to gain more activities, more issues and challenges for many systems with its dynamic usage are introduced. Model Driven Architecture (MDA) approach for development and maintenance becomes an evident choice for ensuring software solutions that are robust, flexible and agile for developing applications. This paper aims to survey and analyze the research issues and challenges that have been emerging in cloud computing applications with a focus on using Model Driven architecture (MDA) development. We discuss the open research issues and highlight future research problems.
