(Zirpins, Lamersdorf and Baier 2004) introduces fundamental issues of coordinating cross-organisational cooperation by service-oriented interaction.

(Zirpins, Emmerich 2007a) describes the PARIS conceptual model, its e-Science application scenario and its technical realisation strategy.

(Zirpins, Emmerich 2008b) describes the service-oriented architecture model for PARIS e-services and the service-oriented design methodology for virtual business services.

(Zirpins, Emmerich 2008d) describes the service-oriented development lifecycle methodology for virtual business services and its implementation by means of model-driven development tools and a grid-based execution platform.
