Mobile Service Oriented Architectures (MOSOA)

چکیده
Mobile services hold a promise of utilizing the phone also for other purposes than purely communication. However, repeated attempts at realizing mobile services in the market place have been met with limited success. This article (1) defines the architectural drivers that drive success or failure of mobile services, (2) analyzes three different architectural styles of realizing such a mobile service using the example of a movie ticket selling service and (3) presents the results of this analysis. The main result of the analysis is that a serious conflict exists between usability and essentially all the other architectural drivers included in our analysis, i.e. portability, deployability and scalability. This is due to the fact that, because of the restricted state of the art technology, only native client applications offer satisfactory usability, but these do not satisfy the other drivers.

Service-Oriented Architectures and Mobile Services
Service-Oriented architectures and Service-Oriented Computing are the most recent approaches aiming at facilitating the design and development of applications on distributed systems. The primary goal of this paper is to investigate how the construction of mobile services can benefit from the Service-Oriented paradigm. The paper provides an elucidation of the ServiceOriented architecture. A gene...
متن کاملA Service-oriented Approach to Mobile Code Security
Client software for modern service-oriented web architectures is often implemented as mobile code applets made available by service-providers. Protecting clients from malicious mobile code is therefore an important concern in these architectures; however, the burden of security enforcement is typically placed entirely on the client. This approach violates the service-oriented paradigm. A method...
متن کاملService-Oriented Architecture Supporting Mobile Access to an ERP System
With the emergence of Web Services application vendors and organizations with heterogeneous software architectures have started to move towards Service-Oriented Architectures (SOAs). In a SOA, software functionalities are represented as discoverable services that are accessed through a network. SOA is a promising approach for Enterprise Application Integration problems. As computing becomes ubi...
متن کاملA Demonstration Case on the Transformation of Software Architectures for Mobile Applications
This paper presents a demonstration case on the successive application of a model-based technique to assist on the refinement of software logical architectures. The technique is essentially based on the transformation of use cases into object diagrams. The applicability of the technique is illustrated by presenting some results from a mobile application. For mobile software, the definition of t...
متن کاملA Unified Formal Foundation for Service Oriented Architectures
This paper summarizes how an algebra for mobile systems, the π-calculus, can be applied as unified formal foundation to service oriented architectures (SOA). The concepts accounted are orchestrations including data and processes, as well as choreographies consisting of interacting processes. Since SOAs incorporate agile binding of interaction partners, static process structures as found in Petr...
