Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA) have emerged as an architectural approach for building distributed applications based on the concept of assembling services. Currently, the growing complexity of software requires greater attention about the quality of the produced applications. Many advances in SOA quality have been proposed in the literature, such as definitions of quality models, attributes and some metrics. However, many research gaps were found and thus much more needs to be done in this research area. There is a lack of metrics and tools to evaluate quality in SOA. Another aspect that needs to be addressed is the application and evaluation of research in accordance with the ISO 25000 standard. Therefore, this research project is mainly aimed at addressing relevant issues in the quality of service-oriented applications that have not been adequately explored. This paper presents the state of the art in the area of quality in SOA, the objectives that have been defined, the methodology to be followed to achieve the objectives, and the expected outcomes of the research project.
