developers to investigate whether the chosen so-
lution design produced a quality application ac-
cording to the quality attributes.
4. Specific Solution - Case Studies.
According to Shaw (Shaw, 2002), a research re-
sult in software engineering can be a specific so-
lution which means to present a solution to an ap-
plication problem that shows use of software en-
gineering principles. Therefore, an important re-
search result is to develop an application using de-
sign principles and thereby producing a good so-
lution for the problem. This study will develop
two case studies (proposed in subsection 6.1) to
validate the metrics and tools produced. These
case studies will also be useful to analyze the use
of design principles and to discuss what it can be
inferred in the SOA applications quality.
