ABSTRACT
Sufficient experience with implementing service-oriented architecture (SOA) has been accumulated so that the software characteristics of SOA implementations can be evaluated. The evaluation reported here considers four SOA implementation project situations: pilot implementations in the common form and in the classic form, and subsequent implementations in the common form and in the classic form. Since reductions in maintenance have been claimed as major SOA benefits, the evaluation reported here focuses on maintenance characteristics as described in the standards of the IEEE and the International Standards Organization.
