    The huge demand for ad-hoc and situational enterprise-class applications led to a new kind of Web-based applications, known as enterprise mashups. End users from the business units with no programming skills are empowered to combine and reuse existing company internal and external resources within minutes to new value added applications. In order to handle the growing number of mashable components, we propose a context-aware concept for enterprise mashups that supports users to find relevant components according to their current situation and to compose them automatically. The designed context model which is structured in the three domains agent, computing and environment is implemented in the SAP Research RoofTop Marketplace prototype to demonstrate its applicability and business benefits.

    Enterprise Mashups have gained momentum in the last years. Business users with no or limited programming skills are empowered to leverage in a collaborative manner existing mashable components. By combining and reusing Web-based resources within minutes, business users are able to create new value added applications to solve an individual and ad-hoc business problem. In this demo, we show the SAP Research RoofTop Marketplace prototype that transfers established marketplace concepts and principles to the Enterprise Mashup paradigm in order to handle business and organizational challenges of the Mashup paradigm in enterprise environments.

    SAP Research RoofTop Marketplace: Putting a Face on Service-Oriented Architectures

    The huge demand for situational and ad-hoc applications desired by the mass of business end users cannot be fully covered by traditional Service-Oriented Architectures (SOAs). By putting a face on SOA, Enterprise Mashups empower these end users to combine and reuse Web-based resources within minutes to create value added applications. In this paper, we present the SAP Research RoofTop Marketplace prototype that transfers established marketplace concepts to the Enterprise Mashup paradigm in order to leverage the power of peer production. The underlying concepts and the resulting architecture of the platform are presented. By means of a business scenario, the features of the grassroosts Enterprise Mashup platform are demonstrated.
