Process Oriented Dependency Modelling for Service Identification

Abstract

Part 3: Finance and Service ScienceInternational audienceService-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is important for organisations to achieve dynamic business process and build business agility. One of the first step for service oriented applications implementation is to properly identify a set of fine-grained services. A right service granularity is necessary to satisfy lower coupling and higher cohesion principles for reusable software services. To meet this challenge, a lot of efforts have been attached to support service identification. In this paper, by considering the dependency combined with the idea of graph partition, a service identification method is proposed from the business process’s perspective. The illustration example has shown its promising and it is expected that the proposed service identification method can offer researchers further insight into service granularity analysis

Assessment of Contributions of the Methodology for the Construction of a Catalog of Information Technology Services Aimed at Public Entities

“…At a general level, in service engineering, the identification of services plays a fundamental role, as it establishes the basis for subsequent processes (Rong et al, 2014). Identification of ITS is one of the most important activities in the construction process of the ITSC and also of the ITSCM; in fact, several studies have focused on this topic (Mera & Aguilar, 2019).…”

Proposal for the Identification of Information Technology Services in Public Organizations

“…As mentioned above, in service engineering, the identification of services plays a fundamental role, since it establishes the basis for subsequent processes [5]. A study by Souza et al [22] showed that the methods of analysis and the design of services aim to identify services and organize them into a manageable hierarchy of compound services to support the processes carried out by a company.…”

“…In service engineering, the identification of services plays a fundamental role since this identification establishes the basis for subsequent processes [5]. Then, if the services are poorly identified, these subsequent processes are negatively influenced [6].…”

“…This work sought to complement existing governance standards, such as the SOA governance framework, thereby creating a reasonable service development priority. As in 2014, in an investigation carried out by Rong et al [5], a SIM was proposed from the perspective of the business process. In addition, the authors stated that the proposed framework is being created but still requires some improvements.…”
