Herein, we will focus on proposing a service taxonomy and classification for RBA/SOA architectures aiming to model a common framework for the description and composition of possible Atomic Ser- vices or networking functions valid for architectures coping with het- erogenous environments. The final objective is fine-tuning the delivery chain to optimize application and delivery performance and behaviour in heterogenous networks. Although our work takes the TARIFA architec- ture as the basis model for our contribution, we think it can be helpful for other architectures dealing with protocol modularization and service composition
