Integrating business process and user interface models using a model-driven approach

Business services are complex entities that encompass descriptions about different aspects including business processes and user interfaces. Typically, the modeling of business services results on several correlated models. On the one hand, there is the need to keep these models apart in order to attain the levels of abstractions needed to model different aspects of a service. On the other hand, it is important to maintain the consistency and integrity of models. In this paper, we show how to maintain the consistency and integrity of models and present a use case for the integration of user interface design and business process models.
