Pattern Templates for Automating Business Choreography on Web Services

Integrating and automating workflow processes have been investigated to decrease resources and increase the efficiency of e-business processes. Researchers have analyzed patterns for workflow, but little has been done to make the patterns into a systematically deployable application. In this research, we proposed templates to support established workflow patterns, and developed a framework to accommodate these templates. The proposed system analyzes pattern type from a work flow diagram, collects the necessary information for the process, and makes a connection to appropriate application system. We developed a simple prototype to show the effectiveness of our system for automated business choreography.
