Abstract

In a service-oriented architecture, systems communicate by exchanging messages. In this work, we propose a formal model based on OCL-constrained UML Class diagrams and a methodology based on Alloy Analyzer respectively for describing and verifying any first-order constrained client-server conversations. This framework allows us to verify conversation protocol designs at a fairly detailed level and to check first-order logic constraints on both message flows and message contents.
