Service orientation and enterprise integration has brought new requirements for information systems development processes and methods. Enterprise level service oriented architecture requires a requirement engineering approach, which takes the roles and boundaries between systems and organizations into an account. This paper describes a new way of using UML use cases in systems development projects involving integration and services between systems. The technique, Integration Use Cases, emphasizes the role of intermediate systems (such as service buses), but can be used for modeling point-to-point integration as well. The technique has been created as a response to experienced problems in real world systems development projects and tested in practice in large-scale systems development. The paper introduces the technique and provides examples and experiences from practice.
