Configurable Resource-Oriented Architecture towards services cooperation

Due to the complexity of describing and execute business requirements, it is difficult for enterprises to adapt to rapidly changing environment. Thus a Configurable Resource-Oriented Service Architecture (CROSA) is proposed to bridge business modeling in build time and services execution in run time seamlessly. Firstly, based on business model analysis, a business meta-model is built to act as a referred model to encapsulate enterprise information resources. Then these resources act as the basic description to generate services by means of service transformation. And WADL and BPEL are involved in this step. Next, referred to Model-View-Controller pattern of software development, IT elements including service, web pages and data sources are mapping to resources oriented service architecture. Lastly, a state space defined by a resource array is built as the control mechanism for services integration so as to build a completed IT system. And a prototype system is implemented to develop data-centre information system for verification. The approach provides a way to realize service cooperation in a more flexibly pattern.
