SEMANTIC ORCHESTRATION MERGING - Towards Composition of Overlapping Orchestrations
Clémentine Nemo, Mireille Blay–Fornarino, Michel Riveill, Günter Kniesel · 2007
Service oriented architectures foster evolution of enterprise information systems by supporting loose coupling and easy composition of services. Unfortunately, current approaches to service composition are inapplicable to services that share subservices or data. In this paper, we define overlapping orchestrations, analyse the problems that they pose to existing composition approaches and propose orchestration merging, a novel, interactive approach to composition of overlapping orchestrations based on their semantic.
