Abstract
This paper studies the requirements of services in a distributed system. It examines management possibilities for describing the service trading scenario according to the computational viewpoint of the Open Distributed Processing (ODP) Reference Model. Because of similar architectures and properties ODP services, service offers, types, exporters and traders are mapped onto management components and modelled as managed objects. Therefore, the Guidelines for the definition of Managed Objects (GDMO) are used. The concept allows a precise study of the service trading scenario and provides means for exporting and importing of service offers in a distributed environment.
