4. Prof. A. Taleb-Bendiab, ETEC’08, April 2008, page: 4 Drivers for Change  Modern Expectations  Higher availability -- near-100% availability on 24x7 delivery basis  Higher malleability -- organic change, and just-in-time growth and adaptation  Allowing flexible system up scaling without sacrificing performance, availability or maintainability  Lower maintainability and administration requirements  80% IT budgets spent on applications operation, maintenance and post production retro-fitting, etc. (Forrester survey, 2006).  Higher survivability for business continuity  Service outages are frequent and costly  65% of IT managers report that their websites were unavailable to customers over a 6-mth period  25% indicate 3 or more outages  outage costs are high  Social effects: negative press, loss of customers [Source: InternetWeek 4/3/2000]  Catastrophic failure of critical systems

5. Prof. A. Taleb-Bendiab, ETEC’08, April 2008, page: 5 Searching for Inspirations  Social and biological systems  Learning from other industries  Specialisation and service commodity  Extended value chain == demand + supply chains  Agility is critical to delivering mission/business critical systems  Rise of the Internet of Services vision  anticipated to reshaping our methods and processes for  development, source, commission, deployment and management of large-scale complex software systems as those required for  e-government, e-health, and e-learning systems  Will have a set of socio-technical implications including:  organisational flexibility, organisational alignment, working practices and strategies and control.
