Telecom and Informatics

Business Landscape

CBSE Practice: CBSE so far mainly on implementation and technology level, ERP, SCM, E-Business

CBSE Standards/Technology: OMG, UML, MDA, Platforms, Web services, WebSphere, WebLogic, .Net,

CBSE Research: IST projects: BANKSEC, COMBINE, ECO-ADM, OOSPICE, COMPONENT+, Trusted Components Initiative,

Issues: Trusted components, ERP Components, Move to services, Composition, Process/Methods

7

Telecom and Informatics

Finance Landscape

CBSE Practice: the acceptance of a component-based approach and the adoption of a value chain perspective in the development of financial business solutions.

CBSE Standards/Technology:, EONTEC, UNIFACE, IBM WBC

CBSE Research: BANKSEC, COMPASS,

Issues: Inhibitors – see next

Telecom and Informatics

Telecom Landscape

CBSE Practice: The telecom domain has two distinctly separate internal domains; the real-time systems that are used for call handling, set-up and routing and the IT systems that are used to manage the customers.

CBSE Standards/Technology: ITU, ETSI, TINA , .. OMG, W3C, IETF , Parlay (Solutions from Ericsson, IBM, …)

CBSE Research: IST MODA-TEL, …

Issues: Process, Handle multiple technologies, Mobility and Quality of Service, Non-functional aspects, ..Reliability, Trust,

10

Telecom and Informatics

COTS & COTS cross domain components

CBSE Practice: Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software components is becoming an economic and strategic necessity for many organisations , Glossary/terms, searching, changes. (See issues)

CBSE Standards/Technology: Mostly horizontal (Separate market

document/annex), non-standardised cross-domain components – some exceptions, OMG, OGC GIS field

CBSE Research: IST ECUA , SEI, ICCBSS conferences

Issues: Identification, classification and characterisation, Trust, Process and Methods, Legal issues, Cost analysis, Change management

11

Telecom and Informatics

Geographical Information Systems Landscape

CBSE Practice: Component-based commercial and standard-based solutions in the market since 1997 – because of the need of large users (US DoD, CIA, Telecom/Location services) with buying power

CBSE Standards/Technology: ISO/TC211, OGC OpenGIS Standard components and services since 1995

CBSE Research: IST ACE-GIS Adaption and Composition of GI Services, EC-GIS yearly workshops for IST projects

Issues: Methods and tools for specification of platform independent components/services with platform specific profiles

12

Telecom and Informatics

Simulation Landscape CBSE Practice: Simulation components can replace the yet non-

existing parts of a system. So it can help to test a system before the existing system is ready. The recent simulation languages provide a tool for simulation and to build simulation components

CBSE Standards/Technology: HLA (High Level Architecture), Simulation Software packages

CBSE Research: SIMBeans, ++

Issues: Integration with knowledge based models

13

Telecom and Informatics

Web Services vs Components

CBSE Practice: Web Services, ebXML, SoA, emerging from vendors

CBSE Standards/Technology: Too many (?), W3C, OASIS, WS-I, OMG, …

CBSE Research: IST projects on services/CBSE – COMBINE, ACE-GIS, ADAPT, ONTOWeb

Issues: To build further from CBSE, Process, Trust, Identification, selection, dynamic binding, workflow/choreography, Services vs Components

14

Telecom and Informatics

Overview/Summary: Domain commonalities and differences

CBSE Practice: Use of CBSE is increasing – from a technology/implementation starting point

CBSE Standards/Technology: OMG.

CBSE Research: Numerous IST projects + National, USA, Australia, Japan

Issues: Specification/MDA, Architecture/Services, Composition/Adaptability, Verification and testing, Non-functional aspects/QoS, Management, Process, Trust, ….
