An Integrated SQA Framework for e-Collaboration

In order to be effective and efficient, e-collaboration applications frequently need to interact with numerous other applications, many of these applications may be within the same firm - intranet; some of them might be another participating firm's application - extranet. Service oriented approach is expected to provide a solution to this issue and many organizations are undertaking SOA deployment but most of these implementations result in sub-optimal due to lack of proper framework. Keeping the above as the research issue, this study aims to facilitate the development of a framework which will help in the efficient management of the services in a service-oriented environment so as to allow businesses to rapidly develop, integrate and reuse applications in order to deliver dynamic solutions as e-collaboration needs to evolve.
