Web Services and Formal Methods
This volume contains the papers presented at WS-FM 2007, the 4th International Workshop on Web Services and Formal Methods, held on September 28 and 29, 2007 in Brisbane, Australia. Web service technology aims at empowering providers of services, in the broad sense, with the ability to package and deliver their services by means of software applications available on the Web. Existing infrastructures for Web services - ready enable providers to describe services in terms of structure, access policy and behaviour, to locate services, to interact with them, and to bundle simpler services into more complex ones. However, innovations are needed to seamlessly extend this technology in order to dea...
Petri Net Synthesis
This book is a comprehensive, systematic survey of the synthesis problem, and of region theory which underlies its solution, covering the related theory, algorithms, and applications. The authors focus on safe Petri nets and place/transition nets (P/T-nets), treating synthesis as an automated process which, given behavioural specifications or partial specifications of a system to be realized, decides whether the specifications are feasible, and then produces a Petri net realizing them exactly, or if this is not possible produces a Petri net realizing an optimal approximation of the specifications. In Part I the authors introduce elementary net synthesis. In Part II they explain variations of...
Web Services and Formal Methods
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 9th International Workshop on Web Services and Formal Methods, WS-FM 2012, held in Tallinn, Estonia, in September 2012. The 9 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 19 submissions. They cover aspects such as the modeling and analysis of web services, service discovery, and service coordination with formal methods like BPEL, CSP, Maude, and Petri nets.
Web Services Foundations
Web services and Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) have become thriving areas of academic research, joint university/industry research projects, and novel IT products on the market. SOC is the computing paradigm that uses Web services as building blocks for the engineering of composite, distributed applications out of the reusable application logic encapsulated by Web services. Web services could be considered the best-known and most standardized technology in use today for distributed computing over the Internet. Web Services Foundations is the first installment of a two-book collection covering the state-of-the-art of both theoretical and practical aspects of Web services and SOC research. ...
Business Process Management
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Business Process Management, BPM 2008, held in Milan, Italy, in September 2008. The volume contains 20 revised full research papers and 3 industrial papers carefully reviewed and selected from 154 submissions, as well as 8 prototype demonstration papers selected out of 15 demo submissions. In addition three invited keynote papers are presented. The conference has a record of attracting innovative research of the highest quality related to all aspects of BPM, including theory, frameworks, methods, techniques, architectures, standards, and empirical findings.
Service-Oriented Computing - ICSOC 2008 Workshops
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed papers presented at five international workshops held in conjunction with the 6th International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing, ICSOC 2008, in Sydney, Australia, in December 2008. The volume contains 41 reviewed and improved papers presented at the 4th International Workshop on Engineering Service-Oriented Applications (WESOA 2008), the Second International Workshop on Web APIs and Services Mashups (Mashups 2008), the First International Workshop on Quality-of-Service Concerns in Service Oriented Architectures (QoSCSOA 2008), the First Workshop on Enabling Service Business Ecosystems (ESBE 2008), and the Third International Workshop on Trends in Enterprise Architecture Research (TEAR 2008). The papers offer a wide range of hot topics in service-oriented computing: management and analysis of SOA processes; development of mashups; QoS and trust models in service-oriented multi-agent systems; service ecosystems, service standardization, and evolutionary changes of Web services; governance aspects of SOA, enterprise models and architectures.
Weak conformance between process models and synchronized object life cycles
Process models specify behavioral execution constraints between activities as well as between activities and data objects. A data object is characterized by its states and state transitions represented as object life cycle. For process execution, all behavioral execution constraints must be correct. Correctness can be verified via soundness checking which currently only considers control flow information. For data correctness, conformance between a process model and its object life cycles is checked. Current approaches abstract from dependencies between multiple data objects and require fully specified process models although, in real-world process repositories, often underspecified models a...
Service-Oriented Computing - ICSOC 2011 Workshops
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 2011 ICSOC Workshops consisting of 5 scientific satellite events, organized in 4 tracks: workshop track (WESOA 2011; NFPSLAM-SOC 2011), PhD symposium track, demonstration track, and industry track; held in conjunction with the 2011 International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing (ICSOC), in Paphos, Greece, December 2011. The 39 revised papers presented together with 2 introductory descriptions address topics such as software engineering services; the management of service level agreements; Web services and service composition; general or domain-specific challenges of service-oriented computing and its transition towards cloud computing; architecture and modeling of services; workflow management; performance analysis as well as crowdsourcing for improving service processes and for knowledge discovery.
Business Process Management
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Business Process Management, BPM 2011, held in Clermont-Ferrand, France, in August/September 2011. The volume contains 22 revised full research papers carefully reviewed and selected from 157 submissions, as well as 5 industrial track papers and abstracts of three invited talkes. The papers address innovative research of highest quality from computer science, management information science, service-oriented computing, and technology management.
Business Process Management Workshops
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of 12 international workshops held in Tallinn, Estonia, in conjunction with the 10th International Conference on Business Process Management, BPM 2012, in September 2012.
