And the suggested solution is: Models, Architectures and Platforms Model makes the relationship between constituents of business visible (see e.g. Osterwalder & Pigneur, 2001) -> ITKE50 The software architecture of a program or computing system is the structure or structures of the system, which comprise software components, the externally visible properties of those components, and the relationships among them. (Bass, Clements, and Kazman) But an architecture for e -system is a subset, or superset of offerings services applications 3
Architecture functions (Youngs et al., 1999) Breaking down the complexity of the IT system so that developers can analyze and design components that are relatively isolated from one another Analyzing the functionality so that required technical components (or infrastructure) can be identified Assisting in the analysis of service-level requirements so that the means of delivering them can be designed Providing a basis for the specification of the physical computer systems on which the IT system will execute and the mapping of components onto these computer systems 4

Component based architecture Architecture is the foundation for the swproduct line. Architecture forms the organizational plan for component development. Architecture is the root of system qualities. Architecture ensures that variability across products can be accomplished by changes confined to one or a select set of components. 13
Komponenttityypit (Häkkinen & Peltola, 1998) Räätälöidyn komponentin: tietty toiminta tietyssä ympäristössä räätälöitynä valmistajalta Valmiskomponentti on ohjelmistojen kehittäjille uudelleenkäytettäväksi suunnattu komponenttituote. Standardoitu rajapinta määrää käyttöympäristön. Lisäkekomponentti on täydentävä, loppukäyttäjille suunnattu valmiskomponentti (esim. Plug-init) Sovitekomponenttia käytetään, jos valmiskomponentti ei täytä kaikkia ohjelmistonkehittäjän asettamia vaatimuksia, niin se voidaan sovittaa näihin erityistarpeisiin. Muutokset tekee komponentin valmistaja (esim. Toimialakohtainen adapteri) 14
Sovitekomponentti Helppoa, komponentti sovitettu asiakkaan tarpeisiin Helppoa, sillä komponentti toteutettu sopimaan asiakkaan ympäristöön Voidaan määrittää itse laatukriteerit Toteutus suhteellisen edullinen, käyttö ja ylläpito edullista Komponenttityypit soveltajan näkökulmasta (Häkkinen, 1999) Ongelma Valmiskomponentti Räätälöity komponentti Komponentin Perustuu toimittajan Helppoa, käyttökelpoisuuden tarjoamaan komponentti arviointi dokumentaatioon toimitettu asiakkaan Komponentin käyttöönotto Komponentin laatu Komponentin kustannukset (toteutus, käyttö ja ylläpito) Juridiset seikat ISA-mallin Motivaatio-sarake Perustuu toimittajan tarjoamaan dokumentaatioon Toimittaja takaa, mutta varmistettava itse Kaikki kustannukset edullisia verrattuina perinteiseen ohjelmistoon ja muihin komponenttityyppeihin Toimittajalla avainasema sopimusten määrittämisessä Asiakkaan varmistettava itse dokumentaation avulla, hyvin hankalaa tarpeisiin Helppoa, sillä komponentti toteutettu sopimaan asiakkaan ympäristöön Voidaan määrittää itse laatukriteerit Toteutus valmiskomponenttia ja perinteistä ohjelmistoa monta kertaa kalliimpi, käyttö ja ylläpito edullista Asiakas avainasemassa sopimuksen määrittämisessä Asiakas voi vaikuttaa kehityksen aikana, hankalaa Toimittaja ja asiakas neuvotteluissa tasavahvoja Asiakas voi vaikuttaa kehityksen aikana, hankalaa 15

Design Patterns (adopted from Gamma et al., 1995) Generic descriptions or templates of solutions to context specific problems It is described in: The goal and reason description in the form of intent Motivation, describing scenarios/use cases in which to use the pattern by combining problems and contexts Graphical representation (typically class or interaction diagrams), i.e. structure, participants, collaboration Implementation, Sample Code Known uses and related patterns Algorithms solve computational problems, patterns design problems 17
Design patterns (IBM, 2004) patterns identify the interaction between users, businesses, and data. patterns are used to create simple, end-to-end e-business applications. Integration patterns connect other patterns together to create applications with advanced functionality. Integration patterns are used to combine patterns in advanced e-business applications. Composite patterns are combinations of patterns and Integration patterns that have themselves become commonly used types of e-business applications. Composite patterns are advanced e-business applications. Custom designs are similar to Composite patterns, as they combine patterns and Integration patterns to form an advanced, end-to-end solution. These solutions, however, have not been implemented to the extent of Composite patterns, but are instead developed to solve the e-business problems of one specific company, or perhaps several enterprises with similar problems. Application and Runtime patterns are driven by the customer's requirements and describe the shape of applications and the supporting runtime needed to build the e-business application. Product mappings to populate the solution. The product mappings are based on proven implementations. 18

Jups s opinion on patterns Patterns are computer practice, not science However, they seem to fill in the gap between business strategy and actual processes ran on information systems architectures. I.e., they are business model equivalent descriptions of the processes in their relationship with architecture and other parts of the business model The patterns are helpful and proven model conceptualizations of solutions on specific problem domains, Patterns have to be backed up by rigorous and tested components/algorithms and with careful analysis and abstraction of the problem domain. 24
