Hanae Sbaï, Mounia Fredj · International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications · 2016

The expansion of PAIS (Process Aware Information Systems) has created the need for reuse in business processes. In fact, companies are left with directories containing several variants of the same business processes, which differ according to their application context. Consequently, the development of PAIS has become increasingly expensive. Therefore, research in business process management domain introduced the concept of configurable process, with the aim of managing the variability of business process. However, with the emergence of the services-based development paradigm, the alignment of services with business processes is highly required in PAIS. Thus, in this paper an MDA based method which allows for generating configurable services from configurable process is proposed.
