Process Patterns for Service Oriented Development
Software systems development nowadays has moved towards dynamic composition of services that run on distributed infrastructures aligned with continuous changes in the system requirements. Consequently, software developers need to tailor project specific methodologies to fit their methodology requirements. Process patterns present a suitable solution by providing reusable method chunks of software development methodologies for constructing methodologies to fit specific requirements. In this paper, we propose a set of high-level service-oriented process patterns that can be used for constructing and enhancing situational service-oriented methodologies. We show how these patterns are used to construct a specific service-oriented methodology for the development of a sample system. Keywords. Service-Oriented Software Development Methodologies, Process Patterns, Process Meta-Model, Situational Method Engineering
