Abstract

The service-oriented architecture (SOA) has become a standard in business integration. In software engineering, several authors propose requirements elicitation from business goals. However, SOA application modeling does not address these goals, causing a gap that can hinder the application design. The work outlined in this paper proposes an approach to modeling SOA applications based on business goals. The goals are incorporated as semantic information to the application’s architecture and are preserved until its implementation. Thus, the components that perform a particular business goal can be identified from its architecture model, through detailed design, and implementation. Case study “Purchase Order” was selected to verify the proposed approach. The major contribution of this research is the application of business knowledge to improve the service’s descriptions in the application design. The case study indicated that business goals are preserved on models and implementation, making it easy to verify, through tracing its features, if the organization’s goals were addressed as completely as possible.
