Value-based service design based on a general service architecture

• Service-oriented architectures are the upcoming business standard for realizing enterprise information systems, thus creating a need for analysis and design methods that are truly service-oriented. Most research on this topic so far takes a software engineering perspective. For a proper alignment between the business and the IT, a service perspective at the business level is needed as well. In this paper, definitions of "service" are analyzed, resulting in a set of models for the service concept. On the basis of this service architecture, a service design method is proposed and applied to a case from the literature. The design method capitalizes on existing value modeling approaches.
