Systematic Review of Applying Service Oriented Architecture in Networking
[[abstract]]Networking is the practice of communicating and data sharing among devices, through wired or wireless network, and it is playing a pivotal role in our daily life. In other words, Networking is essential for information exchange. However, along with all the benefits from networking technologies, comes various of new challenges, such as network management, network discovery and selection, etc. Due to the increasing demand of more efficient network management system, the concept of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) has attracted networking professionals' attention. SOA provides patterns for architecture, design, implementation of loosely coupled, distributed services regardless of underlying platform or implementation, thus, it is believed to be appropriate to be applied to build a more efficient network management system. This study is motivated by the increasingly popularity of SOA in the networking discipline. In this study, a systematic review of academic papers from IEEE Explore regarding this topic is presented, current state of the application of SOA for networking is highlighted, research efforts in related area are discussed. The study concludes with a suggested future research agenda.[[conferencetype]]ćé[[conferencedate]]20101015~20101017[[conferencelocation]]Darmstadt, German
Pragmatic interoperability in the enterprise : a research agenda
Eective collaboration among today's enterprises is indispensable. Such collaborative synergy is important to foster the creation of innovative value-added products and services that would have otherwise been dicult to achieve if enterprises work in isolation. However, it is a widely held belief that interoperability problems have been one of the perennial hurdles in achieving such collaboration. This research aims to improve the current state of the art in enterprise interoperability research by zeroing in on the notion of pragmatic interoperability(PI). When enterprise systems collaborate by exchanging information, PI goes beyond the compatibility between the structure and the meaning of shared information, it further ensures that the intended eect of the message exchange is realized. This paper outlines our research agenda to address the analysis, design, development and evaluation of a pragmatically interoperable solution for enterprise collaboration
Challenges for the comprehensive management of cloud services in a PaaS framework
The 4CaaSt project aims at developing a PaaS framework that enables flexible definition, marketing, deployment and management of Cloud-based services and applications. The major innovations proposed by 4CaaSt are the blueprint and its lifecycle management, a one stop shop for Cloud services and a PaaS level resource management featuring elasticity. 4CaaSt also provides a portfolio of ready to use Cloud native services and Cloud-aware immigrant technologies
Towards technological rules for designing innovation networks: a dynamic capabilities view.
Inter-organizational innovation networks provide opportunities to exploit complementary resources that reside beyond the boundary of the firm. The shifting locus of innovation and value creation away from the âsole firm as innovatorâ poses important questions about the nature of these resources and the capabilities needed to leverage them for competitive advantage. The purpose of this paper is to describe research into producing design-oriented knowledge, for configuring inter-organizational networks as a means of accessing such resources for innovation
ClouNS - A Cloud-native Application Reference Model for Enterprise Architects
The capability to operate cloud-native applications can generate enormous
business growth and value. But enterprise architects should be aware that
cloud-native applications are vulnerable to vendor lock-in. We investigated
cloud-native application design principles, public cloud service providers, and
industrial cloud standards. All results indicate that most cloud service
categories seem to foster vendor lock-in situations which might be especially
problematic for enterprise architectures. This might sound disillusioning at
first. However, we present a reference model for cloud-native applications that
relies only on a small subset of well standardized IaaS services. The reference
model can be used for codifying cloud technologies. It can guide technology
identification, classification, adoption, research and development processes
for cloud-native application and for vendor lock-in aware enterprise
