A Research Agenda for Maintenance & Evolution of SOA-Based Systems

The main goal of this working session is to provide an opportunity for participants to present current work and have a lively discussion of open issues for the maintenance and evolution of SOA-based systems. The dialog will include both business issues (e.g., organizational changes in the context of migrating to an SOA environment) and technical issues (e.g., analyzing the reuse potential of legacy components in an SOA environment). A draft version of a research agenda will be used as a starting point for obtaining feedback from researchers and practitioners active in this area.
