Abstract

Choreography languages allow us to describe Web Services compositions from a global viewpoint in Service Oriented Architectures (SOA). However, none of the existing languages has achieved the status of de facto standard for that purpose until now. In this paper we compare three existing proposals to specify Web Services choreographies: WSCI, WS-CDL, and OWL-S. First, we describe the main characteristics of each one of these languages, and after that we compare the different structures of the three languages. Finally, we present some conclusions of our work.
