While extensive work has been carried out with the goal of validating the TINA architecture and the TINA documents, little has been done yet for the validation of TINA services. This is the main focus of the ErnesTINA project. In the ErnesTINA project, we propose an integrated approach to facilitate the validation of TINA services by v erifying at run-time that the service implementation has not violated and is not violating certain prede ned properties. In this paper, we present the speci cation of the properties, the run-time observation of the distributed environment, the validation of the properties and nally the implementation of the concepts in a prototype.
