Description
Summary:Many organizations have to align their software systems to new technologies and paradigms, for facing the challenges of interoperation and flexibility. Migration to Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA) represents one of the most important approaches of modernization. The state-of-the-art strategies usually take into account technical issues and implications regarding the business costs and efficiency. Still, these changes also involve challenges at the level of human resources, or even of the organizational structures, because new roles have to be defined and assigned to new or existing job positions. For supporting this management task, the paper proposes a meta modeling paradigm that adds SOA-based roles to traditional organizational structures, and supports the definition of mappings specific for migration.
