Abstract

Fierce market competition nowadays forces enterprises integrating processes internal or across organizational boundaries, which makes distributed business process management (BPM) difficult with existing technologies. Web services are rapidly emerging as important building blocks for business integration. This paper discusses the application of web services in BPM context. The relationship between web services and BPM are described and t e implementation steps of deploying web service oriented BPM are discussed. A two-level web services selection approach based on six selection criteria are proposed and discussed. An example of web services for credit card authentication in order entry process is illustrated to show the application of web services in BPM context.
