The point of our approach is to enable our graphical modeling framework jABC to capture plug-in development in a domain-specific setting. The typically quite tedious and technical plug-in development is shifted this way from a programming task to the modeling level, where it can be mastered also by application experts without programming expertise. We show how the classical plug-in development profits from a systematic domain-specific API design and how the level of abstraction achieved this way can be further enhanced by defining adequate building blocks for high-level plug-in modeling. As the resulting plug-in models can be compiled and deployed automatically, our approach decomposes plug-in development into three phases where only the realization phase requires plug-in-specific effort. By using our modeling framework jABC, this effort boils down to graphical, tool-supported process modeling. Furthermore, we support the automatic completion of process sketches for executability. All this will be illustrated along the most recent plug-in-based evolution of the jABC framework, which witnessed quite some bootstrapping effects.

Rev. Commun. 57, 2004)—the model-driven service oriented development platform we use here for integration, design, evolution, and governance. The artifacts are here semantically enriched, so that automatic synthesis plugins can field the vision of Enterprise Physics: knowledge driven business process development for the end user. We demonstrate this vision along a concrete case study that became over the past three years a benchmark for Semantic Web Service discovery and mediation. We enhance the Mediation Scenario of the Semantic Web Service Challenge along the 2 central evolution paradigms that occur in practice: (a) Platform migration: platform substitution of a legacy system by an ERP system and (b) Backend extension: extension of the legacy Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Order Management System (OMS) backends via an additional ERP layer.

Methods: Bio-jETI uses the jABC environment for service-oriented modeling and design as a graphical process modeling tool and the jETI service integration technology for remote tool execution. Conclusions: As a service definition and provisioning platform, Bio-jETI has the potential to become a core technology in interdisciplinary service orchestration and technology transfer. Domain experts, like biologists not trained in computer science, directly define complex service orchestrations as process models and use efficient and complex bioinformatics tools in a simple and intuitive way.

The culture of "less" can be profoundly disruptive, cutting out existing "standard" elements from products and business models, thereby revolutionizing entire markets.

Ihren Ursprung hat die service- orientierte Denkweise in der Telekommunikation, wo sie die Grundlage der modernsten Anwendungen für mobile und feste Plattformen war, insbesondere der so genannten Mehrwertdienste, wie Televoting, Freephone (die 0800 Nummern), Virtual Private Network. Nur durch die für die service-orientierung charakteristische konsequente Virtualisierung der Infrastrukturen und die lose Kopplung der Funktionalitäten war es möglich, die hochgradig heterogene Landschaft der Telefonie zu beherrschen. Dieselben Prinzipien sind aber viel allgemeiner anwendbar, zum Beispiel auch für Dienste in weniger technischen Geschäftsbereichen wie e-commerce, Logistik, Gesundheitswesen oder Verwaltung. Ihre konsequente Umsetzung als neues Paradigma für die Konzeption, den Entwurf und das Management komplexer Anwendungen hat das Potential, der Gesellschaft eine neue Generation personalisierter, sicherer, hochverfügbarer und effizienter (Internet-) Dienstleistungen zu bescheren. Damit werden viele Geschäftsbereiche revolutioniert, ähnlich wie bereits die Email in vielen Bereichen die klassische Kommunikation per Post revolutioniert hat.
