The intelligent SOA allows the experience and knowledge of business consultants and
experts to be conceptualized and embedded to typical business scenarios, facilitating
the formal modeling and execution of business processes using the Business Process
Execution Language for Web Services (BPEL4WS) workflow modeling language.
While the business consultants develop and model the desirable business scenarios,
they define the Web services required by referring to the functionality aspects of
services and using the common reference business services ontology. As this service
functionality-oriented ontology is also used to annotate, characterize, and categorize
the deployed Web service in the common semantic registry, the execution defined
workflow models realizes the automated composition of intelligent Web services
and the orchestration of flexible, complex business services.
