“…Soo Ho Chang et al . in presented a SOAD that consists of five phases including defining target service, defining unit service, planning service components acquisition, acquiring service components, and composing services to develop adaptable systems. The system variability consisted of three types of service variability, and a mismatch type is identified firstly and is represented with variants that cause change.…”

Service-oriented paradigm presents numerous new software development patterns and idioms. Software systems are implemented by composing existing third-party services deployed in the open environment, which is significantly different from traditional software development methodologies in which systems are built through developing modules after system design in a closed environment. Therefore, it is urgent to raise a new design method to adapt to this new circumstance. We concentrate on reusing as many deployed services as possible then introduce a new life cycle model named Taiji model to illustrate this development process. The iteration-based interactive analysis method following the model is proposed to design serviceoriented systems based on the view of extracting non-creative activities from a creative activity through defining new notations or applying new rules. The method includes the interactive analysis process that analyzes requirements with deployed services in a local point of view and the iterative analysis process that redesigns system with new knowledge in a global perspective. Meanwhile, the reusable service threshold value is defined to build the uncertain candidate service set (UCSS) of each module in analysis process. The reliability and flexibility of systems can be improved through the quantitative static structure analysis on the basis of the UCSS of systems. Meanwhile, a practical dynamic service binding method that selects services according to actual states of invoking them is presented on the basis of the UCSS containing them. Finally, we also give a case study to illustrate the feasibility of this method. AN ITERATION-BASED INTERACTIVE ANALYSIS AND DESIGN METHOD 301Service-oriented computing depicts a vision that utilizes simple small-scale services as fundamental elements to construct applications that are complex large-scale services through orchestrating the simple services [2]. A loosely coupled architecture, consisted of three roles who are provider, consumer, and register, is promoted in service-oriented architecture for this scenario. The provider offers services that enable the requirement of users who can be everyone and are uncertain under the guideline of their individual experiences, domain knowledge, existing services, and specific needs. The consumer automatically requests services that are deployed on widely distributed clouds and are unknown to the consumer to satisfy the demand of functionalities, properties, personality characteristics, and runtime context then delivers new services to server the end users, other consumers, or providers. The register is designated as a mediator between the provider and the consumer, which builds knowledge to eliminate uncertainty, unknown, and randomness between them, and to construct highly dynamic, adaptable, and fault tolerance service-oriented systems through orchestrating services.Nevertheless, traditional software development models, such as waterfall model, rapid prototype model, and spiral model, are carried out in a strict ord...

Abstract. Companies collaborating to develop new products need to implement an effective management of their design processes (DPs). Unfortunately, PLM systems dedicated to support design activities are not efficient as it might be expected. DPs are changing, emergent and non deterministic whereas PLM systems based on workflow technology don't support process flexibility. So, needs in terms of flexibility are necessary to facilitate the coupling with the environment reality. Furthermore, service oriented approaches (SOA) ensure a certain flexibility and adaptability of composed solutions. Systems based on SOA have the ability to inherently being evolvable. This paper proposes an SOA based approach to deal with DP flexibility in PLM systems. To achieve this flexibility, the proposed approach contains three stages. In this paper we focus on the first stage "identification".

“…Data exchanged between tasks and control flows connecting them are modelled as data dependencies and control flow dependencies, respectively. Processes are usually defined at a business level using a workflow-based notation (e.g., BPMN 1 ), independently from implementation technology and platforms [2]. As usual, a process has an entry point (start event) and one or more stop events.…”

With the advent of Service Oriented Architecture organizations have experienced services as a platform-independent technology to develop and use simple internal applications or outsource activities by searching for external services, thus enabling inter-organizational interactions. In this scenario, services are units of work provided by service providers and offered to the other organizations involved in a collaborative business process. Collaboration should be facilitated by guaranteeing a homogeneous description of services at the right level of granularity. We propose a methodology to support the designer of a business process in the identification of services that compose the process itself. The methodology should allow collaborative partners to standardize process modelling through component services, enabling effective interorganizational service discovery. The methodology is presented by means of a running example in a real case scenario
