Asynchronous Timed Web Service-Aware Choreography Analysis

Web services are the main pillar of the Service Oriented Computing (SOC) paradigm which enables applications integration within and across business organizations. One of the important features of the Web services is the choreography aspect which allows to capture collaborative processes involving multiple services. In this context, one of the important investigations is the choreography compatibility analysis. We mean by the choreography compatibility the capability of a set of Web services of actually interacting by exchanging messages in a proper manner. Whether a set of services are compatible depends not only on their sequences of messages but also on quantitative properties such as timed properties. In this paper, we investigate an approach that deals with checking the timed compatibility of a choreography in which the Web services support asynchronous timed communications.
