Service Discovery and Component Reuse with Semantic Interfaces • Richard T. Sanders (SINTEF, Trondheim, Norway) • Rolv Bræk (NTNU, Trondheim, Norway) • Gregor v. Bochmann & Daniel Amyot (SITE, Univ. Ottawa, Canada) SDL Forum 2005 Grimstad, Norway
Conclusion • Service components with semantic interfaces can be described using UML 2.0 collaborations • interface role behaviour including goal expressions • Liveness properties can be evaluated • improvement over static interfaces • Helps reuse, service discovery and role learning SDL Forum 2005 Grimstad, Norway
Vertical composition (within an actor) Service 1 Service 2 Horizontal composition (within a service) Service 3 Actor1 Actor2 Actor3 Actor4 Actor5 Service oriented architecture • a service is a collaboration between roles • a role is the part an actor (agent) plays in a service • a role describes a property of an actor • actors may be involved in several services Service component SDL Forum 2005 Grimstad, Norway
