an important aspect of Select Perspective. The collaboration and choreography between
components and services are not well specifi ed in the methods. Although the collaboration
concept is a fi rst-class citizen in Catalysis, that is still at a lower level of abstraction than
needed for the purpose of defi ning truly service-orientated architecture.
Regarding the way of working, the recent methods provide more a complete component
and service life cycle, as well as traceable component concepts from business to technology.
