“…For each task t k in T do the following If not already in EBE Add the subject name of the task t k to EBE Add the object name of the task t k to EBE End if End for each task Exclude designed business entities End for each role End Algorithm I analyses each business process model to extract existing tasks and entities, where each irredundant task is placed in one row and each unit of work, identified as an essential business entity which has a lifetime managed by the organization (Ould, 2005), is placed in a column to build the CRUD matrix"s headers. Algorithm II (Yousef, 2014) assumes that the business processes are modelled using BPMN, however, this algorithm can be generalized for any business process model using model translators such as Yousef et al (2009).…”

Requirements elicitation is a central and critical activity in the requirements engineering process. Completeness is among the most difficult challenges facing requirements engineers. Missing requirements is one of the major causes of software failure; they often result from the lack of anticipation of all possible relations between elements of the system-to-be. In this paper, we propose a requirements elicitation framework which starts with an organization's business process models and buildsthe system's CRUD matrix. This matrix provides all possible relationships between entities and functions of the system in order to capture all possible requirements of the system. The generated relationships between entities and functions provide analysts with the required prompts to ask potential users/stakeholders during interviews to ensure encompassing all questions. The new framework is demonstrated using a real case study; the Cancer Care and Registration in Jordan.

“…Identifying software services that satisfy the Cancer Care is one of the key activities in developing SOA solutions that contribute to the fields of SOA and Healthcare [3]. However, there is a body of evidence to suggest that identifying the right services is a difficult, non-trivial, and cognitively demanding task to perform [4]. Identifying the wrong services at this stage causes deleterious consequences for downstream development [5].…”

Cancer Care involves not only handling patients' medical or physical needs but also other services to facilitate patient needs which are underpinned by appropriate software systems that assist in patient care processes. The Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) model of computing has become widely adopted and can provide efficient and agile business solutions in the face of rapid changes to business requirements. Instead of adopting a more traditional way of building an IT system for Cancer Care by rigidly piecing together a collection of hardware, software and networking, SOA offers the opportunity to build the IT systems in an increasingly flexible and reconfigurable way. However, current service identification methods can suffer from shortcomings such as a lack of computational support, and not being able to address all the necessary activities of the service identification. To address these shortcomings, this paper presents a comprehensive metaheuristic search framework for deriving SOA-based services applied to Cancer Care business process models. This framework is evaluated using both quantitative and qualitative methods with the help of domain experts at King Hussein Cancer Centre (KHCC), Jordan. Evaluation by domain experts confirmed that the resulting services are feasible (i.e., valid services that can be practically applied for real-life projects) that the domain experts might not have arrived at manually. Statistical analysis shows candidate services produced by the search-based framework are superior to the services produced manually by domain experts at KHCC with respect to metrics for coupling and cohesion.
