Rafael Z. Frantz
I was awarded a PhD degree in Software Engineering by the University of Seville, Spain. Currently, I am a professor at the Department of Exact Sciences and Engineering at UNIJUI University, Brazil, where I lead the Applied Computing Research Group - GCA. In industry, I have five years of experience as a consulting expert in software development. My current research interests focus on the integration of enterprise applications and search-based software engineering.
Research Interest
- Enterprise Application Integration
- Supporting language and tools to design and run integration solutions
- Runtime System efficiency

Summary:
The field of study known as Enterprise Application Integration has played an important role in providing methodologies, techniques and tools for companies to develop integration solutions to reuse their applications and support the new demands that arise as their business evolve. Integration platforms are specialised software tools that provide support for designing, implementing, testing, executing, and monitoring integration solutions. Cloud computing is another field of research that has caught the attention of the scientific community and represents a new paradigm for software development, commercialization, and use. Essentially, this service-oriented paradigm allows companies to dramatically reduce their IT infrastructure costs without sacrificing the quality of computer support provided to their business processes. The quality of service that an integration solution can deliver is directly related to the runtime systems of the integration platform, since it is responsible for executing the solutions. Typically, to achieve the desired quality of service with an integration solution, software engineers have increased computing resources on the server machine where the integration platform is installed within the enterprise. This approach harnesses the performance of an integration solution due to the increased financial costs required to augment current hardware or by purchasing a new server with higher processing capacity. Hiring cloud virtual machines to host the integration platforms allows for a reduction in the total cost of ownership for EAI, as well as through cloud elasticity, a greater flexibility for increasing computing resources when required. The migration of integration platforms to cloud virtual machines has given rise to a new service model that has been termed by the EAI community as Integration Platform-as-a-Service (iPaaS). Our assumption in this project is that these iPaaS platforms consist of the same platforms designed and implemented for use on enterprise server machines, but encapsulated with a web interface and some new adapters for connecting cloud applications or cloud services. Thus, its execution engines need to be adapted to the context of cloud computing. This research project aims to explore the use of cloud computing in the area of application integration and seeks to develop an execution engine model for integration platforms available as iPaaS services, suited to the cloud computing paradigm and more efficient than those found today in the technical and scientific literature of the area.
