“…These BPMN constructs can be translated to π-ADL for WS-Composition by the recurrent application of Workflow Patterns [34]. This mapping from BPMN to π-ADL for WS-Composition is defined in terms of a formal transformation language, namely π-ARL [20].…”

Enabling the specification of dynamic service-oriented architectures is a key challenge for an Architecture Description Language (ADL). This paper describes π-ADL for WS-Composition, a novel ADL that has its roots in the ArchWare European Project. It is a formal language specially designed for modeling dynamic architectures based on the typed π-calculus. While most ADLs focus on describing static architectures from a structural viewpoint, π-ADL focuses on formally describing dynamic architectures from both structural and behavioral viewpoints. How π-ADL for WS-Composition can be used for specifying dynamic Web Service compositions is introduced through a case study. Its design principles, concepts and notation are presented. The π-ADL for WS-Composition toolset is outlined.

Today's world economic situation is ruled by issues such as reducing cost, improving quality, maximizing profit, and improving and optimizing processes at organizations. In this context, business process management can be an essential strategy, but it is not usually consolidated at software organizations because software process properties involve a complex business process management application on software lifecycle. Consequently, software organizations often focus on Software Process Modeling (SPM), and each involved role performs process execution and orchestration independently and manually. This fact makes software processes maintenance, monitoring, and measurement become difficult tasks. This paper proposes a model‐based approach for SPM taking into account concepts related to process execution, orchestration, and monitoring. It is framed into a model‐driven engineering‐based and tool‐based framework: Process Lifecycle Management for Business Software (PLM4BS). We present a SPM metamodel and its concrete syntax (through Unified Modeling Language profiles) that lays the foundation for extending PLM4BS. Its underlying metamodel allows managing processes automatically. Furthermore, PLM4BS improves current state‐of‐the‐art proposals in 6 dimensions: expressiveness, understandability, granularity, measurability, orchestrability, and business variables and rules. Also, PLM4BS has been evaluated in a multiple‐case study, in which the 6 mentioned dimensions were already validated.
