As a workflow is the composition of a series of interrelated web services which realize its activities, the interoperability of workflows can be treated as the composition of web services. To address it, a framework for interoperability of business process execution language (BPEL)-based workflows is presented, which can perform three phases, that is, transformation, eonformance test and execution. The core components of the framework are proposed, especially how these components promote interoperability. In particular, dynamic binding and re-composition of work-flows in terms of web service testing are presented. Besides, an example of business-to-business (B2B) collaboration is provided to illustrate how to perform composition and conformance test.展开更多

The π-calculus overcomes inabilities of web service flow languages in demonstrating the consistency, validating the correctness and so on. The π- calculus analysis and modeling of web services flow is presented, the dynamic actions and basic activities of WS-BPEL with π-calculus formally are described, and the mapping from π-calculus expression to WS-BPEL is built. The basic construction of web services flow with the π-calculus method after the analysis of the syntax of WS-BPEL and inter-description between WS-BPEL and π-calculus is expressed. Also discussed are the approaches to web services flow by modeling from different views, and the proposed approaches through the development and modeling of an e-commerce web service flow application are illustrated.展开更多
