Abstract

How to adjust the technological expenses and how to adapt systems to business requests aiming at improving operative efficiency have become fundamental questions for many companies. These companies must be able to maximise their technology, processes and services, building a framework where a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) appears as a key element for the change. In this paper, we present a design and implementation that allows to reuse the logic of existing applications in a new execution environment. These applications should be able to communicate according to some standards, based on W3C specifications. To achieve this purpose the architecture developed follows the architectural patterns Model-View-Controller (MVC) and Layers. A modular design based on open structures plays a crucial role to reuse each one of the subsystems needed by the company to incorporate, orchestrate or coordinate new business processes. This way it is possible to share part of the logic already deployed during the design phase of new business processes, avoiding high development costs.
