Abstract

The potential that mashups can reach in web applications has not yet been exploited in practice. In fact, many of the challenges that introduce some of the most advanced types of mashups are not yet solved and require new mechanisms that allow their proper specification and execution. Among the different types of identified mashups, in this work we focus on process mashups, a type of mashups where the integration and coordination of people, tasks, services and UIs is required. Specifically, from the set of characteristics found in this type of mashups we focus on the collaborative aspect found in process tasks. To deal with it we provide a modeling solution that extends a business process modeling language such as BPMN to represent such characteristic. The solution has been defined within the context of OOWS4BP, a model-driven engineering approach to deal with the development of business process-driven web applications.
