Terlouw, Linda I.Dietz, Jan L.G.2017-08-282017-08-282010Definitions on Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Service-oriented Design (SoD) are often not clear or even contradictory, which makes it hard to compare the various methodologies. We apply the Generic System Development Process (GSDP), a conceptual framework for developing systems of any kind, and specialise it for service-orientation. Using the resulting Service-Oriented Development Process, we position seven state-of-the art methodologies for service-orientation based on two criteria. One is the coverage of the system development process. The other criterion is the depth in which each of the development phases are dealt with.enA Framework for Clarifying Service-Oriented Notions - How to Position Different ApproachesText/Journal Article10.18417/emisa.5.1.21866-3621
