“…The Structural Model includes product and resource diagrams, and the Behavior Model includes process and service diagrams. Authors in [8] refined them to Organization Model, Process Model, Data Model, System Model, and Service Model. In essence, these models also can be reduced to those three models described previously.…”

“…Propositions in [5,10], and [8] have a relation with the business model of the problem domain. In [5] this relation is obtained by selecting those business functions from the "pure" business model of the problem domain that are to be served by the system, and composing corresponding structural and behavioural models.…”

“…In [10] this relating node is the business process model of the problem domain that is created based on the Pre-CIM (an informal model of business processes, organizational hierachies, informal documentation and very informal concept model) and on which business reqirements for the system are grounded. In [8] the joining element is the business context and business requirements for the enterprise integration system. This context defines existing organization, services, processes and datas, and specifies requirements for the integration system.…”

Compliance between a problem and a solution domain(s) is a wellknown issue in software development. A usual way of development is focusing on the solution, and adapting the solution to the problem domain only in case of occurred issues. Sometimes, the cost of such adaptation is very high, and then the cheapest way is to change operation of the problem domain. Certainly, such ways cannot satisfy a client. This paper considers a computation independent model as a place where overcoming of the gap must occur. It discusses ways for overcoming a gap between a problem domain and a solution domain(s) that are proposed within CIMs, and suggests a mathematical mechanism, continuous mapping, provided by a topological functioning model together with its other topological and functional properties as a formal bridge between those domains. This mechanism is explained by an example.

“…They emphasise the importance of utilising such technologies in the context of business architecture (process driven) as response to more recent criticism that MDA has failed to deliver. Huang and Fan propose an approach to enterprise integration where MDA is the philosophy of system development and SOA is the infrastructure of system implementation (Huang and Fan, 2007). This approach shares some similarity with the approach described here but a missing component is the role of BPM as a bridging mechanism between SOA and MDA.…”

One of the key challenges of Service-oriented architecture (SOA) is to build applications, services and processes that truly meet business requirements. Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) promotes the creation of models and code through model transformation. We argue in this paper that the same principle can be used to drive the development of SOA applications, using a Business Process Modelling (BPM) approach, supported by Business Process Modelling Notation (BPMN). We present an approach that allows the SOA application to be aligned with the business requirements, by offering guidelines for a systematic transformation of a business process model from requirements analysis into a working implementation.

“…Despite the benefits of freedom in goal modelling, a question arises when aiming to align goals and processes: what goals must be modelled for supporting strategic alignment in an MDD method?. Even though MDA's CIM has been widely exploited for specifying the information system requirements, other interpretations have included business model information (Kirikova, Finke, and Grundspenkis, 2010), the organisation's environment, and external forces (Huang and Fan, 2007) that could also set goals for developing the information system. Considering information systems as work systems (Steven Alter, 2013) and the framework depicted in Figure 1.3, different goals can be set by the system users, customers, and high-level organisational actors.…”

New, disruptive technologies emerge daily, changing the world as we know it: how we learn, work, and socially interact. This ever-changing scenario pushes organisations to quickly adapt not only their products and services but also their structure and strategies to survive and thrive. As has been widely studied, aligning information technology to high-level goals is key for an organisation to adapt quickly to its environment. Model-driven development (MDD) methods have contributed to this by systematically including business goals in the software development process, providing traceability, quality and efficiency through model-to-model transformations. Yet, existing MDD methods have not included organisational strategy and structure in the development process. This thesis integrates organisational information into a baseline MDD method composed of the OO-Method, an object-oriented model-driven development method, and Communication Analysis, a communication-oriented business process modelling method. The baseline MDD method is extended by the main contributions of this thesis: LiteStrat, an organisational modelling method, and Stra2Bis, a method for designing strategically aligned business processes. LiteStrat supports modelling the external influences that drive new software development endeavours and the strategy and organisational structure to address such influence. Stra2Bis integrates LiteStrat and Communication Analysis through three model-to-model transformation guidelines, generating the scaffold of business processes aligned with the organisation's structure and strategy. Sound experimental validations were performed to assess the methods' improvements in completeness and accuracy and their effect on the method users' efficiency and satisfaction. Further work regards implementing the methods into industrial contexts and their continuous evolution. v ResumCada dia sorgixen noves tecnologies que canvien el món tal com el coneixem: com aprenem, treballem i ens relacionem. Aquest escenari porta a les organitzacions a adaptar ràpidament no sols els seus productes i servicis, sinó també la seua estructura i estratègies per a sobreviure i prosperar. Com s'ha estudiat àmpliament, alinear la tecnologia de la informació amb objectius d'alt nivell és clau perquè una organització s'adapte ràpidament al seu entorn. Els mètodes de desenvolupament dirigits per models (MDD) hi han contribuït en incloure els objectius de negoci en el procés de desenvolupament de programari, proporcionant traçabilitat, qualitat i eficiència mitjançant transformacions de model a model. No obstant, els mètodes MDD existents no han inclòs l'estratègia i l'estructura de l'organització en el procés de desenvolupament. Aquesta tesi integra la informació organitzacional en un mètode MDD existent compost per OO-Method, un mètode MDD orientat a objectes, i Anàlisis de Comunicacions, un mètode de modelatge de processos de negoci orientat a la comunicació. A ells, s'integren les principals contribucions d'aquesta tesi: LiteStrat, un mètode de modelat...
