Information system's architectures in the University IS engineering

摘要

These days it is commonly accepted that universities are a specific kind of the socio-economic system (SES). All of socio-economic systems are supported by information systems and information and communication technologies. From the research of the strategic objectives of Slovak universities it has resulted that there are two main processes (Education, Science and Research) with several supporting processes at the university and a few of them are supported by good information system. We focus on the management and information system's support of the process of science and research because its results are the main criteria for quality evaluation at the university. Nowadays, MDA (Model driven architecture) and SOA (Service oriented architecture) are two modern software architectures which model information systems and their principles we use in the development of IS to the support the process of science and research. In our mention SOA is more technical architecture as the methodology of development IS so we would like to apply MDA approach in SOA architecture.
