Abstract:
Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) has been widely adopted to develop distributed applications with the
promise of legacy systems integration and better agility to build applications by reusing services. Considering
the important role of SOA in organizations, quality should be treated as a key issue. By observing the works
proposed in the literature, it is possible to notice that there is a need for development of a specific quality
model for SOA based on the latest ISO 25010. One of the proposals of this paper is to analyze which important
contributions were aggregated into the new ISO 25010 regarding SOA applications when compared with ISO
9126. This paper provides the definition of a specific quality model for SOA based on quality attributes defined
by ISO 25010. As a result, most quality attributes proposed by ISO 25010 may be applicable to SOA at some
degree level. However, some of these quality attributes should be adapted when applied to SOA projects.
