Abstract
Service orientation promotes an agile development paradigm for rapid application development and presents evolutionary challenges to adapt to frequent environmental changes. To maintain effective service-based application operations, this research introduces a Serv-Gears framework to maintain a mechanism for evolution-need monitoring. Inheriting major characteristics of a service-oriented paradigm, this mechanism is designed in a service-based style to facilitate development agility in evolution planning and implementation. Serv-Gears allows developers to continuously specify service-based monitors even during application operations. The specified monitors are included dynamically in the running application to collect monitoring results. Evolution plans are then effectively developed and assessed. Such an integrated development environment provided by Serv-Gears facilitates agile service-based application evolution.
