On exploiting system dynamics modeling to identify service requirements

SOA provides a flexible framework for betterintegrated systems that meet business needs. However, the existing methods are not successful in helping business analysts to devise appropriate business services. Herein, a novel approach is presented to address service identification and thereby developing sound SOA. In contrast with conventional methodologies, we press on the criticality of exploiting the information of dynamic business behavior to develop business services. © 2006 IEEE.
