Vers l'intégration dynamique de contrats dans des architectures orientées services : Une expérience applicative du modèle au code

Services Oriented Architectures (SOA) provides flexibility but intensifies the need in contract definition for services. Contracts expression must then be included at all levels of the software lifecycle, entailing different implementations according to their nature and the targeted execution platforms. In the national research project Faros, experiments have been conducted to introduce contract support in an SOA-based application. This paper presents the resulting process and the implementations. It also discusses benefits of Model Driven Engineering applied to evolution management of the application.
