Abstract

A context description of a software system and its environment is essential for any given software engineering process. Requirements define statements about the environment (according to Jackson's terminology). The context description of a Service-Oriented Architecture is difficult to provide, because of the variety of technical systems and stakeholders involved. We present two patterns for SOA systems and support their instantiation with a structured method. In addition, we show how the pattern can be used in a secure service development life-cycle.
