Abstract

It is necessary to identify the use cases of the supplier systems in order to define new service using their functions. Current use case modeling techniques, however, do not represent the external use cases clearly, because the external system is represented only by an actor. This ambiguity of the modeling technique declines the comprehensiveness of the model, and does not limit the scope of the target system explicitly. In this paper, we propose the extended use case modeling technique for service-oriented computing. This modeling technique enables the definition of external use cases and components. They are used to limit the boundary of the target system, and the relationship between them are modeled by the realization of external use cases. The proposed technique uses UML stereotype extension mechanism. so the compatibility with current use case modeling technique is preserved.
