PO-IA-2.2.1 Identification of Potential Industrial Collaborators — by Andreas Gehlert — last modified May 19, 2009 10:15

This aim of this deliverable is to establish a first relationship between the S-Cube project and industry partners, which currently use SOA and which are willing to provide best practices and industrial cases for validating the S-Cube research results. This deliverable reports on the first activities towards such an industry alignment, which was achieved in three steps: First, we collected a list of possible industrial contributors. Second, we asked each contributor to complete a questionnaire. This questionnaire was used not only to find out whether a particular company is willing to contribute to S-Cube but also to gather information about the current status of industrial SOA projects and their main problems to which S-Cube may contribute. Third, on the basis of the results of these questionnaires we propose seven potential industrial partners with which we plan to collaborate.

CD-IA-2.2.2 Collection of Industrial Best Practices, Scenarios and Business Cases — by Benedikt Liegener — last modified Jun 16, 2009 14:17

The current document aims at presenting the case studies that we have been collecting so far and we consider most relevant to S-Cube. In particular, we focus on five cases as they, collectively, touch all the main points of interest within S-Cube. To make all case studies comparable and easily understood, we have defined a case study description approach that leverages from the results achieved by NEXOFRA and from the Requirements Engineering literature. The usage of such approach for revising and describing all cases has been very useful to highlight some weak aspects of the original descriptions and to identify those aspects in the case studies that cover the main points of interest for S-Cube.

PO-IA-2.2.3 Identification of alignment needs with industry — by Dustin Hebgen — last modified Jun 09, 2011 21:04

In this deliverable, the identification of the industrial alignment needs with industry are discussed. In the first part of the report, requirements emerging from the scenarios and business cases considered in S-Cube are matched with the research roadmap of S-Cube. This gap analysis helps identifying research topics and areas that are in need of alignment. This deliverable reports preliminary results, which will be extended and detailed in the upcoming CD-IA-2.2.4 deliverable. Then the report analyzes the contacts with industries which have been pursued so far in the project and the initiatives that have been taken. On the basis of the results of these efforts and of the comments received during the second year review, this report delineates a strategy for achieving the goals that S-Cube has set with respect with interaction with industries and proposes a plan to be implemented in the second part of the project.

CD-IA-2.2.4 Report on common Pilot Cases — by Osama Sammodi — last modified May 17, 2010 15:55

The current document aims at presenting the pilot case studies that we have been collecting so far and we consider most relevant to S-Cube. In particular, in this deliverable we harmonize and document the refinements of the case studies of deliverable CD-IA-2.2.2 with the scenarios proposed for validation as a joint effort with IA3.2. The aim is to provide a definition of the pilot cases that will be used as reference by the research work-packages. For each pilot case the related abstract scenarios are reported and their relationships with the Integrated Research Framework are highlighted

CD-IA-2.2.5 Final version of the methodology for describing pilot cases — by Dustin Hebgen — last modified Jun 09, 2011 20:31

This deliverable introduces the final version of the methodology for describing pilot cases starting from the first version described in the Deliverable CD-IA-2.2.2. This new version has strict relationships with other S-Cube Integrated Activities: IA-1.1 for the Knowledge Model and IA-3.1 for the Integrated Research Framework. The methodology is also available as a Wiki available at http://scube-casestudies.ws.dei.polimi.it that forms integral and substantial part of this document.
