Description

The Service Taxonomy View (SOV-1) specifies a hierarchy of services. The elements in the hierarchy are service specifications (i.e. service interfaces), and the relationships between the elements are specializations – i.e. one Service is a special type of another. Along with SOV-2, it specifies a standard library of Service specifications for an enterprise, which Service implementers are expected to conform to.

Implementation

SOV-1 can be represented using a SOV-1 diagram which is based on the UML Class diagram.
