Abstract

Service specification is the core of the service-oriented modeling activity and focuses on elaborating the detailed design of the services, flows and components. Therefore, the selection of an appropriate and proven method to conduct this activity is critical to the success of any service-based solution. Existing methods for service specification ignore the automation capability while focusing on human-based and error-prone processes. This paper proposes a novel method which automatically specifies the architecturally significant elements of service model work product. Model transformations such as the proposed method, automate the labor- and cost-intensive activities and lead the architect to focus on more important activities, which need human intelligence, and eventually enable efficient development of service-based solutions.
