Abstract. With the emergence of Web service technologies, it has become possible to use high level megaprogramming models and visual tools to easily build distributed systems using...
Abstract. Hierarchical Task-Network (HTN) based planning techniques have been applied to the problem of composing Web Services, especially when described using the OWL-S service on...

In this paper we argue for middleware languages that aid in service composition. We outline where such languages could be useful through the description of our current architectur...
Service-based approaches are widely used to integrate heterogenous systems. Web services allow for the definition of highly dynamic systems where components (services) can be dis...
The development of new web services by composition of existing services is becoming an extensive approach. This has resulted in transactions that span in multiple web services. Th...
The realization of multimedia systems still heavily relies on building monolithic systems that need to be reengineered for every change in the application and little of which can ...
Abstract. In addition to publishing composite services as reusable services, compositions can also be reused by applying them to orchestrate different component services. To do so...
In an open environment populated by large numbers of services, automated service composition is a major challenge. In such a setting the efficient interaction of directory-based s...
We describe a methodology for assembling composite services based on three basic processes which are independent of the concrete implementation: Abstraction Process, Service Compos...
System theory propagates the use of models which e level of abstraction to cope with complexity, evolving out of variety and connectivity. Different modeling techniques have been ...
