Abstract

Since software integration research has yielded avariety of different concepts, we survey and discuss EAI(Enterprise Application Integration terminology, in thedomain of the quality properties, known as Quality ofServices (QoS) offered by the EAI middleware. The maingoal of this work is to establish a correspondence ormapping between the ISO standard definitions and theterminology used in the description of the QoS providedby the EAI middleware. Our aim is to give the EAIsoftware community an easy way to "standardize" andunify their terminology using our mapping, withoutloosing the advantage of using the current notionsemployed by users and practitioners. A standard qualitymodel, based on the ISO-9126-1 for EAI middleware andintegrated information systems (Enterprise Systems) hasbeen defined to achieve this goal. Our result can be usedas a basic element or starting point towards an ontologyfor software quality in the EAI domain.
