Service Design Process for Reusable Services: Financial Services Case Study

Automatic service derivation from business process model repositories via semantic technology

“…One of the most frequently used artifacts in this context is the process model. Against the background of the multitude of automatic process model analysis techniques, it is surprising that many of the identification techniques building on process models suggest a manual analysis (see [5,22,23,26,25,24,21] [28] introduce heuristics that also consider the hierarchical relationships among processes. Even though these approaches make use of automated techniques, the scope of the automation is limited to a particular set of steps.…”

Automatic Derivation of Service Candidates from Business Process Model Repositories

“…This is accomplished by iteratively complementing the first word of the business object until we finally obtain the original business object. Each business object part having a frequency greater or equal than two is inserted as a node on the according hierarchy level (lines [13][14]. Finally, the hierarchy trees are sorted according to the frequency of the main word (line 15).…”

“…However, most approaches proposes to strike a balance between the two extremes. As a result, plenty of software service identification approaches include the analysis and evaluation of business process models [11,12,13].…”

“…It has been shown though that both derivation types have many commonalities. For both service types, business and software services, many authors consider the analysis and evaluation of business process models to be a central step [11,12,13]. Therefore, we will focus on the reuse of process models and abstract from differences between both service types here.…”

A Model-Driven Architecture Approach to the Efficient Identification of Services on Service-Oriented Enterprise Architecture

“…The adoption of process BPMN as a modeling language is motiv factors. Firstly, the existing prior researc process-oriented modeling provides a SOEA [6,17,18]. Secondly, the Diagrams for business process modelin the OMG suffer from significant lim modeling related resources and repre types of control-flow constructs [26].…”
