This deliverable updates the figures provided in Deliverable CD-IA-2.1.3 “Initial assessment of results of a separate mobility program for researchers and students” and CD-IA-2.1.4 “Mobility program determined based on the S-Cube Convergence Knowledge Model” about how the scientific subjects for mobility and the S-Cube integration framework elements have been covered by the mobility initiatives. The reference period goes from month 1 to month 36.

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.

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.

PO-IA-3.1.4 Initial Definition of User Patterns — by Dustin Hebgen — last modified Jun 09, 2011 21:05

S-Cube’s WP-IA-3.1 (“Integration Research Framework: Baseline & Definition”) has the ob-jective of defining a coherent, holistic framework for service engineering and adaptation - the Integrated Research Framework, or IRF. The framework developed as part of this workpackage should cater for various types of service-based application (SBA) stakeholders, or parties with an interest or concern in the design, development and operation of SBAs. This interim deliver-able identifies an initial set of stakeholder types which will be refined and expanded as part of Task T-IA-3.1.3 later in the project.

PO-IA-3.1.8 Report on Alignment of Long-term Research Agendas of Beneficiaries — by Benedikt Liegener — last modified Oct 24, 2012 16:25

This deliverable reports on the alignment of the long-term research agendas of the individual beneficiaries and of the network as a whole. The analysis results presented in this deliverable are based on input obtained from all partners (including the associate members) concerning a set of consolidated information elements obtained within this WP and within other integration and research WPs. The performed analysis aims to show how the research activities of the individual partners are aligned with the goals and objectives of the network. It also demonstrates how the research activities and results of S-Cube as a whole have progressed with respect to the overall research agenda. As a major result of this analysis, this deliverable provides evidence that a strong alignment of the research agendas within the network has been achieved.

PO-IA-3.2.1 Initial Definition of Validation Scenarios — by Osama Sammodi — last modified May 17, 2010 15:57

This deliverable aims to collect and to systematically document the scenarios existing in S-Cube materials. These scenarios will be used in the follow up deliverable CD-IA-3.2.2 to validate the research framework and to support the validation of the individual research results. To approach this goal, the following three elements are represented in this document: First, the systematic guidelines are defined in order to describe the scenarios in a uniform way and to link them with the industrial case-studies provided in IA-2.2. Second, the existing scenarios produced by the S-Cube partners are collected and documented according to the guidelines. Third, based on this initial set of scenarios, we demonstrate with the help of examples how the scenarios should be used to validate S-Cube results.

PO-IA-3.2.6 Results of the Initial Empirical Evaluation — by Osama Sammodi — last modified May 17, 2010 15:58

This deliverable reports the results of empirical evaluation activities undertaken by S-Cube partners for the validation of research results. The systematic guidelines and templates used for the documentation of validation results and their related aspects are detailed. The initial set of collected validation results, documented according to these guidelines, is then presented. Finally, planned, upcoming evaluation activities are introduced.

PO-IA-3.2.7 Results of the Second Empirical Evaluation — by Dustin Hebgen — last modified Jun 09, 2011 21:07

This deliverable is the continuation of deliverable PO-IA-3.2.6 and reports the results of empirical evaluation activities undertaken by S-Cube partners for the validation of research results in year three of the network. The systematic guidelines and templates used for the documentation of validation results and their related aspects are detailed. The set of collected validation results, documented according to these guidelines, is then presented. Finally, planned, upcoming evaluation activities are introduced.

PO-JRA-1.1.1 State of the art report on software engineering design knowledge and Survey of HCI and contextual knowledge — by Andreas Metzger — last modified May 19, 2009 10:08

This deliverable surveys the state of the art in all areas related to the engineering of service-based applications with particular focus on all aspects related to adaptivity. Moreover, it provides an overview of various aspects concerning the way human beings interact with each other and with the computerized systems. This second aspect, even if not directly related to the Service-Oriented Computing context is being analyzed in order to understand if it could be a good source of inspiration for new challenges and new issues for service-based applications. The deliverable provides some initial thoughts about these challenges and issues. Further analysis and research will be developed in the following of the S-Cube project.

PO-JRA-1.1.3 Codified Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) Knowledge and Context Factors — by Benedikt Liegener — last modified May 19, 2009 10:08

This deliverable reports the results from preliminary, exploratory research to explore the potential impact of different types of codified HCI knowledge and context factors on the development, deployment and adaption of service-based software applications. It reports additional literature review results undertaken to inform the research, scopes and structures the preliminary research through presentation of a series of conceptual meta-models of human-computer interaction (HCI) and context concepts, then describes results of exploratory research to investigate the effect of knowledge about users, user tasks, organisational culture and user experiences on development of service-based applications. Results inform future research in this work-package through summaries that identify what types of HCI and context knowledge are more likely to effect different activities during the development and deployment of service-based applications.
