TL;DR: There is a need to merge technology with an understanding of business processes and organizational structures, a combination of recognizing an enterprise's pain points and the potential solutions that can be applied to correct them.
Abstract: Summary Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) is a new computing paradigm that utilizes services as the basic constructs to support the development of rapid, low-cost and easy composition of distributed applications even in heterogeneous environments. The visionary promise of Service-Oriented Computing is a world of cooperating services where application components are assembled with little effort into a network of services that can be loosely coupled to create flexible dynamic business processes and agile applications that may span organisations and computing platforms. SOC is being shaped by, and increasingly will help shape, modern society as a whole, especially in the areas of dynamic and ondemand business and education, health and government services. The subject of SOC is vast and enormously complex, spanning many concepts and technologies that find their origins in diverse disciplines that are woven together in an intricate manner. In addition, there is a need to merge technology with an understanding of business processes and organizational structures, a combination of recognizing an enterprise's pain points and the potential solutions that can be applied to correct them. The material in research spans an immense and diverse spectrum of literature, in origin and in character. As a result research activities at both worldwide as well as at European level are very fragmented. This necessitates that a broader vision and perspective be established—one that permeates and transforms the fundamental requirements of complex applications that require the use of the SOC paradigm. This will further enhance the value proposition of ServiceOriented Computing and will facilitate the formulation of a Services Research Roadmap leading to more effective and clearly inter-related solutions and better exploitation of research results. This document provides the necessary background for deciding on potential future research programmes in SOC and places on-going research activities and projects in the broader context of a SOC Roadmap. This research roadmap launches four pivotal, inherently related, research themes to SOC: service foundations, service composition, service management and monitoring and service-oriented engineering. The viewpoints presented in this document partly result from intensive discussions experts with various backgrounds led in parallel workgroup and in plenary sessions that took place during the International Dagstuhl Seminar on Service-Oriented Computing held November 15-18, 2005, in Schloss Dagstuhl, Wadern. Each theme is introduced briefly from a technology, state of the art and scientific challenges standpoint. From the technology standpoint a comprehensive review of state of the art, standards, and current research activities in each key area is provided. From the state of the art the major open problems and bottlenecks to progress are identified. Several of these obstacles arise due to the current lack of interdisciplinary research in the field, which is considered to be a major impediment that limits added economic growth through deployment and use of services technology. Finally, the scientific challenges that tackle the found obstacles are formulated. These are long-term visions that serve as integration platforms and demonstrators for an holistic approach to Service Oriented Computing in the identified key areas. These future research activities form a sound background for deciding on potential future programmes in SOC.

TL;DR: The results of a global Delphi study with three key stakeholder groups suggest that the critical areas of concern are standardization of modeling approaches, identification of the value proposition of business process modeling, and model-driven process execution.
Abstract: Business process modeling has undoubtedly emerged as a popular and relevant practice in Information Systems. Despite being an actively researched field, anecdotal evidence and experiences suggest that the focus of the research community is not always well aligned with the needs of industry. The main aim of this paper is, accordingly, to explore the current issues and the future challenges in business process modeling, as perceived by three key stakeholder groups (academics, practitioners, and tool vendors). We present the results of a global Delphi study with these three groups of stakeholders, and discuss the findings and their implications for research and practice. Our findings suggest that the critical areas of concern are standardization of modeling approaches, identification of the value proposition of business process modeling, and model-driven process execution. These areas are also expected to persist as business process modeling roadblocks in the future.

TL;DR: In this paper, the core concepts of service-dominant logic (service-for-service exchange, value co-creation, value propositions, resource integration, and highly collaborative relationships) point to a generic actor conceptualization in which all actors engaged in exchange (e.g., firms, customers, etc.) are viewed as service providing, value creating enterprises.
Abstract: This article discusses how the core concepts of service-dominant logic—service-for-service exchange, value co-creation, value propositions, resource integration, and highly collaborative relationships—point to a generic actor conceptualization in which all actors engaged in exchange (e.g., firms, customers, etc.) are viewed as service providing, value-creating enterprises. In other words, all social and economic actors are essentially doing the same thing: creating value for themselves and others through reciprocal resource integration and service provision. The authors suggest that this generic actor-to-actor (A2A) orientation, in turn, points toward the dynamic and systemic nature of social and economic exchange. To account for the complexity, indeterminacy, and viability of these dynamic systems, they highlight the importance of general systems theory, complexity theory, and the viable systems approach and propose that cross-disciplinary scholarly efforts are necessary in order to develop models and frameworks that can simplify the complexity of social and economic exchange in meaningful ways and ultimately inform practice and public policy.
