“…In this context, we have developed a coherent service architecture evolution framework presented in Figure 2 that realises the evolution tasks illustrated in Figure 1. Preliminary results for this work are validated and accepted as a peer-reviewed conference publication [14], that are summarised below: Modeling: A metamodel (based on UML 2.0) has been developed to model the fundamental SOA elements (atomic and composite services) with enforced structural constraints for the target architecture integrity. It serves as a foundation for automated transformation at upper layers.…”

Service-based architectures have now become commonplace, creating the need to address their systematic maintenance and evolution. We propose to enable transformation-driven evolution for service architectures in a semi-automated fashion. In contrast to the existing solutions like service wrapping, migration or run-time adaptation etc., the proposal supports primitive and customisable architectural transformations to support an incremental evolution for service architectures. An empirical approach is adopted to investigate the extent to which the architecture evolution tasks (i.e. modeling, transformation and refinement) can be automated and validated in context to the central hypothesis for architecturecentric software evolution. Based on the initial results, we plan to proceed toward modeling and automating the architectural evolution in a formal way.

“…Incremental models for transition to SOA environments have been proposed by Ahmad and Pohl (2010) as well as Marchetto and Ricca (2009). Ahmad presents a layered framework to support an incremental transformation of SOA elements (atomic and composite services) at different levels of abstraction (structure, design, and architecture).…”

Research Challenges in the Maintenance and Evolution of Service-Oriented Systems

Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is a viable option for systems development, systems integration, and leverage of legacy systems. Despite its positive contributions and potential, SOA has been subjected to significant hype and inflated expectations, and past research efforts in this area have been unfocused. As a result, there is a strong need for systematic and unbiased research. Based on a synthesis of two leading efforts, this chapter presents a framework of research challenges for service orientation and focuses on the topics related to the migration and evolution of service-oriented systems. The chapter reviews current progress as well as gaps in addressing challenges that are derived from the framework.
