Reconciling Web Service Failing Interactions. Towards an Approach Based on Automatic Generation of Mediators
Ali Aït-Bachir, Marie-Christine Fauvet · 2007
Interactions between Web services are based on inter-faces which describe Web services on both structural and behavioural perspectives. It can happen that the interface provided by a service does no longer match (for instance, because of an evolution) the interface required by its part-ners. In this situation, and until the required interfaces are fixed, interactions cannot succeed. To address this issue, and focusing on the behavioural part of interfaces, we pro-pose an approach based on a mediator, automatically gen-erated, which aims to seamlessly resolve incompatibilities during service interactions. 1
