Abstract

Fulfillment of highly dynamic requirements demands the adoption of new processes and facilities for software developers. On one side, composition of Web services is a process that facilitates inter-enterprise applications in order to fulfill the requirements. On the other side, UML has been widely used in software development. Therefore, some UML modeling diagrams for web services composition processes have the advantage that software developers are acquainted with the notation. However, tools that implement UML diagrams must evolve in order to support web services composition. A tool that models UML activity diagrams for web services composition with its parser built as a web is described in this paper. The idea of the paper is to propose software development tools seen as polymorphic entities.
