Abstract

Web Service (WS) developers must take several decisions to design Service Oriented Architectures. Some of these decisions are: which operations should provide the involved Web Service, how we can detect these operations, in which way this can be automated and which is the right granularity of the operations. To address some of these questions, we present in this paper a methodological approach that extends the OOWS web engineering method. Following a model-driven approach, we systematically identify and design the operations of a Web service, taking as the source: (1) the tasks that the user must be able to achieve and (2) the OOWS conceptual models.

This work has been developed with the support of MEC under the project DESTINO TIN2004-03534 and cofinanced by FEDER.
