3.4. Technical Services

16. Technical services provide fundamental support to service based frameworks both in the form of information integration and communication services, and in the form of COI independent general service building blocks.

17. COI services provide more specialized services in order to give the business more specific business benefits within a "domain" or "area of interest".

18. A COI is a collaborative group of users who have shared goals, interests, missions or business processes that result in information exchange and shared vocabulary.

19. Information services include services that are either made available to all users by the infrastructure, or are mandatory to be provided by all users, by all providers or by all consumers. Information services also include specification of services of general interest that may be voluntarily exchanged by any parties on the network.

20. Actually information services are based only on core enterprise services (CES), but may be extended in the future.

21. Any service based framework, such as the Business Process Infrastructure Framework (BPIF), needs to provide a basic set of services that support and facilitate implementation and deployment of actual business services and processes. Such basic services are usually referred to as Core Enterpise Services.

22. Here we will provide an overview of such CESs in a BPIF context in terms of the way such services are categorized. A few examples of CESs in each category is also provided, but a complete set of well defined core services cannot be provided as it to a large extent will depend on the actual implementation of the BPIF.

23. Core services in a BPIF context are divided into two main categories according to their primary role in the implementation of business services and processes.

3.4.1. Basic Infrastructure Services

24. The first main category of core services, here referred to as Basic Infrastructure Services (BIS), are used to support the infrastructure (BPIF) that support deployment, operation and management of business processes. BIS is further divided into three subcategories according to three of the main aspects of a BPIF.

  • Service Selection BIS are concerned with the basic mechanisms for discovery and visibility of services. Typically this encompasses basic service directories with support for syntactic description and lookup of services.

  • Management and operation BIS are concerned with various types of management and operation of services and infrastructure. There are at least four subcategories.

    • BIS handling policies, including required security level, conditions for service delivery, availability, quality of service undertakings etc.

    • Security BIS include basic functions for managing information security, and a typical example is a service that keeps track of role and person oriented authorization, distribution of keys, handling of certificates etc.

    • Service Management BIS handle life cycle management of other services, including for example monitoring and configuration.

    • Resource Management BIS are used to manage infrastructure resources and will be highly dependent on infrastructure implementation. A typical example is resource management in a Grid.

    • Network Management BIS are concerned with networking and communication aspects of the infrastructure, and involve for example router configuration.

  • Process Composition BIS are concerned with support for business processes.

3.4.2. Business Service Enablers

25. The second of the main core service categories is Business Service Enablers (BSE). While BIS services are concerned with the BPIF infrastructure per se, they are not used a foundation for implementation of business services. This is instead the role of BSE, which provide basic functionality that is shared by many business services independently of Community of Interest (COI).

26. BSE are divided into three main subcategories based on the types of functionality they offer.

  • Collaboration BSE support basic exchange of data between services. Examples include message passing (uni- and multicast, email, etc.), distributed file sharing, publication (web pages etc.), and data format conversion.

  • Synchronization BSE support synchronization of service and process interaction, and includes for example time services, and event notification.

  • Common Information Services (CIS) is the third and last subcategory of BSE. CIS provide COI-independent support for access to general information like maps, glossaries, standards, and document registries.

27. Note: Not all functions in this category are necessarily service oriented in a SOA sense. They are nevertheless important for a network-oriented capability.

28. The third area of the technical services is the communication services. These services provide a transparent, seamless information exchange capability to allow a communication between the various information entities above.

Spectrum Supportability Request/Comment is a two-way commitment between the (host)nation owing the system and each nation hosting the system:

- it is a prerequisite for the procuring nation/agency to perate SDEs in a host nation.

- host nations granting support to a SDE is expected to assign frequencies when requested.

Failure to follow this process will have very negative long-term impacts:

- an ever growing risk of interference between own systems.

- the ever-increasing pressure from the commercial sector: having an accurate view of military use of spectrum is an essential precondition to be able to defend it against civil encroachment.
