Analytic execution architectures have been proposed by the same authors as a
means to conceptualize the cooperation between heterogeneous collectives of
components such as programs, threads, states and services. Interface groups
have been proposed as a means to formalize interface information concerning
analytic execution architectures. These concepts are adapted to organization
architectures with a focus on financial transfers. Interface groups (and
monoids) now provide a technique to combine interface elements into interfaces
with the flexibility to distinguish between directions of flow dependent on
entity naming.
The main principle exploiting interface groups is that when composing a
closed system of a collection of interacting components, the sum of their
interfaces must vanish in the interface group modulo reflection. This certainly
matters for financial transfer interfaces.
As an example of this, we specify an interface group and within it some
specific interfaces concerning the financial transfer architecture for a part
of our local academic organization.
Financial transfer interface groups arise as a special case of more general
service architecture interfaces.Comment: 22 page
