I meant, as mentioned in other mail, that in the paper published as RM
for SOA bby OASIS, there is no architecture diagram for SOA? There is
only one diagram that shows "Relation of SOA with others.."!!!

My point was around RM for soa by OASIS. They have not researched much
or made relation explicit between soa and bp, bs etc.

This may be correct. But I was looking more from the ideas being
standardized. The closest to the thoughts discussed here, I found in
the RM by CBDI forum. They have made Zachman kind of framework with
columns (who, when, where why etc.) and then rows concept, logical and
physical. This RM is closest to what I have learned from discussion
here.
Still we need better architecture diagram to make more explicit
relation. but at least the ideas around soa i find more closer to what
we are discussing here.
