Abstract :
Dynamic binding has been recently applied with success to composite services. However, many business processes are human-centered, that is, tasks may be performed by humans other than software, and so these processes require a high interaction between users and Web applications. Inspired from previous work in service dynamic binding and information propagation in web application mashups, this paper proposes an approach to enable, through proxy portlets, dynamic binding between human-centered processes and web applications or web services, also enabling the propagation of information - e.g., form parameters and operation outputs - between different activities.
