The rapid diffusion of service-oriented systems is becoming a reality in today's software engineering. In particular, an aspect that is gathering the interest of researchers and practitioners is the possibility to create compositions of dynamically bound services. This paper describes WS Binder, a framework for enabling dynamic binding of service compositions according to some functional and non-functional preferences and/or constraints. The framework is also able to support run-time recovery actions, by performing service re-binding. The paper describes the framework's architecture and highlights its features by describing an example of its usage for the binding and re-binding of a service composition related to the tourism domain.
