| Popis: | When creating a company's IT structure based on a service-oriented architecture (SOA), it is necessary to first analyze the business domains and process areas of the company, then to model the business processes to be supported by the SOA and finally to convert the models into a service orchestration description. Currently, few methodologies exist to support this. At our department, we have proven that the UN/CEFACT Modeling Methodology (UMM) can be used for intra-organizational process integration. In this article we analyze if the UMM is sufficient for SOA, which artifacts are missing and how the UMM could be extended. The UMM was created to model the collaboration between different legal entities to perform collaborative business processes. There exist methods to convert these models into executable service choreography descriptions expressed in the Business Process Specification Schema (BPSS) or the Business Process Execution Language (BPEL). However, the business process models can also be used as a basis for an intra-organizational service orchestration. By extending the UMM it is possible to enable the automated generation of service orchestrations using Core Components and the Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN). |
