Coordination for Distributed Business Systems

Abstract. We motivate, discuss and present extensions to architecture modelling techniques through which business systems can support services and applications that are location and network aware. These extensions provide a complete separation between three concerns: Computation, which accounts for the way service functionalities are provided in system components, Coordination, which accounts for the interactions that need to be put in place to enforce business rules, and Distribution, which accounts for the need to reconfigure the way services are provided in reaction to changes in the locations where functionalities are computed and the communication infrastructure over which coordination takes place.
