Case Study: TLS
• TLS example differs from the previous RailCo examples as follows: – TLS contrasts three separate approaches to modeling
their service candidates. – Two of the approaches considered involve establishing
an orchestration layer by introducing a new process service candidate.
– One of the approaches is based on the creation of entity-centric service candidates.
– TLS employs the use of the classification system, the terms used in this example differ from the RailCo example.

Figure 12.14: The TLS Timesheet Submission Process.
This process is self-contained and has no dependencies on any other processes. Within TLS's service-oriented environment, it therefore is considered a primitive business process.

Expanding the TLS Timesheet Submission Process 1/2
• begin with the "Verify timesheet" step; – 2a. Compare hours recorded on timesheet to hours
billed to clients. – 2b. Confirm that authorization was given for any
recorded overtime hours. – 2c. Confirm that hours recorded for any particular
project do not exceed a predefined limit for that project.
– 2d. Confirm that total hours recorded for one week do not exceed a predefined maximum for that worker.
• Each of these steps is a simple action that is considered a primitive business activity

Expanding the TLS Timesheet Submission Process 2/2
• we discover that the "Reject timesheet submission" process activity can be decomposed into the following primitive business activities: – 4a. Update the worker's profile record to keep
track of rejected timesheets.
– 4b. Issue a timesheet rejection notification message to the worker.
– 4c. Issue a notification to the worker's manager.

Figure 12.16: An ad-hoc grouping of primitive business activities.
These two groups adequately represent the collective business process logic and are therefore used as the source from which two corresponding service candidates are derived:
•Verify Timesheet Service •Reject Timesheet Service
Approach #1: Deriving hybrid services

Figure 12.19: A simple service
composition consisting of two
hybrid, task-centric service candidates.
Pros Minimal analysis and modeling effort. Results in the creation of simple and easy-to-understand service candidates. Cons No specialized service layers were created, therefore eliminating the benefit potential of service layer abstraction. No real reuse benefit is achieved, as services are very specific to a single process. No agility is achieved, as service logic is tightly coupled to process logic.

Approach #2: Deriving entity-centric services
to establish a layer of entity-centric candidates, along with a parent orchestration layer consisting of a single process service candidate.

Figure 12.26: A service composition controlled by an orchestration layer.
Pros Allows for the creation of reusable service candidates. Establishes an extra level of abstraction via the orchestration layer. Highly extensible and agile. Cons Requires more analysis effort. Results in a more complex service composition. Requires the creation of additional services not yet identified (application services needed to carry out processing tasks for the Employee, Timesheet, and Invoice services).

Approach #3: Mixing task-centric and entity-centric services
It has been discovered that there is reuse potential for the collection of verification tasks associated with the Timesheet Submission Process.

Figure 12.28: The revised service composition incorporating a task-
centric service.
Pros Similar benefits of agility and extensibility to the entity-centric only approach. If the Verify Timesheet sub-process is truly reusable, there may be a benefit to abstracting it from larger process workflow logic. Cons Results in an even more complex composition that introduces an additional layer of processing. Removal of workflow logic from the process service decentralizes control of the overall Timesheet Submission Process.
