“…They present a method to support meta-model integration and interoperability and exemplify this with the BPEL meta-model. In [17] the same authors have used activity diagrams to capture the behavioral aspects of composing web-services and to transform these diagrams into BPEL. Eriksson and Penker have written a complete book about using UML for business modeling and have among other thing defined a profile to be used for business process modeling [18].…”

Abstract. General-purpose modeling languages are inadequate to model and visualize business processes precisely. An enterprise has its own vocabulary for modeling processes and its specific tasks may have attached data that define the tasks precisely. We propose using Domain Specific Modeling (DSM) languages to model business processes, such that an enterprise can define its own DSM language(s) capturing its vocabulary and data requirement. We suggest using UML profiles and UML activity diagrams as the semantic base for these DSM languages and present tools that are able to create a DSM language and tool support for a given domain. One tool, called ADSpecializer, can generate a UML profile and its tool support of a given application domain. The other tool, ADModeler, is used to create UML activity diagrams within such a domainspecific UML profile. The two tools enable an enterprise to efficiently define and utilize their own DSM language.

“…2). We have refined the Activity Diagram by including a set of stereotypes, based on the various types of actions specified in the metamodels of actions in the UML superstructure in chapter 11 [20] and inspired by Bordbar et al in [3]. The overall goal of the processing of automobile insurance claims business process is to fulfil the «Process Goal» High Customer Satisfaction, Short Process Duration and Low Processing Costs.…”

Abstract. The UML 2 Activity Diagram is designed for modelling business processes, but does not yet include any concepts for modelling process goals and their measures. We extend the UML 2 Activity Diagram with process goals and performance measures to make them conceptually visible. Additionally, we provide a mapping to BPEL to make the measures available for execution and monitoring. This profile and its mapping are tested with an example business process.

“…In these examples, we are going to consider two metamodels: the BPEL and WSDL, representing a partial view of the Web service domain. The metamodels can either be created from their original XSD specifications or reuse pre-existing ones [2,3,4]. Fig.…”

“…1 illustrates how the Web service domain is represented by the BPEL and WSDL metamodels and how these are mapped to equivalent UML modelling concepts, providing their platform independent representations, as UML activity and component diagrams respectively. Regarding these mappings, there are already some research activities defining their MDA transformations [2,4]. On the right side, one can see how a metamodel binding between the BPEL and the WSDL metamodels is applied and how this is reflected as a UML representation (in this case a collaboration element).…”

Abstract. The application of MDA to Web services has recently received considerable attention. Similar to UML diagrams, Web services are specialised languages each one targeting a specific aspect and functionality of the system. By using multiple languages, it is possible to specify complete integrated models of the system, having structure, behaviour, communication and coordination mechanisms. To benefit from MDA, Web service languages have to be represented as UML metamodels. In order to provide an overall view of the design and inter-operations of the system with models, it is crucial to integrate their UML metamodels. In this paper, we shall conduct a comparative study of the metamodel integration in Web services and UML. Drawing on the lesson learnt from the integration of Web services, a method of integration of UML metamodels will be presented, which facilitates model transformations and supports interoperability, inter-navigability and consistency across the integrated domains.
