Master Thesis Evaluation

A week ago I started discussion with Guido Laures about possible topics for my master thesis. I ask him for business related problems in the area of service oriented architecture and he told me that there is a lack of research in the area of service enablement for non-service oriented applications. In the majority of the cases those applications are mission critical for enterprises and reengineering them in a service oriented way is mostly too expensive and risky.

After searching for corresponding information I found out that in fact there are only a few papers about this topic. Thus I will begin with further research on this in context of a topic in the seminar “Business Process Management II”. After the seminar I will decide if I prepare this topic as my master thesis or not.
