title = "Assessing construction interoperability using a MDA and SOA architecture from an e-business perspective",
abstract = "The Model Driven Architecture (MDA) makes available an open approach to write specifications and develop applications, separating the application and business functionality from the platform technology. As well, the Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) establishes a software architectural concept that defines the use of services to support the requirements of software users, making them available as independent services accessible in a standardized way. This paper analyzes how the combination of these two architectures provide a suitable framework to improve construction companies interoperability through the adoption of a standard-based extended environment, and validates its applicability, with two case scenario applications, against the traditional business factors that often hinder e-platforms deployment.",
