Complete Abstract Operational Semantics for the Web Service Business Process Execution Language
In this technical report we present an abstract operational semantics for the Business Process Execution Language for Web Services, or BPEL for short. In effect, the semantics defined herein are a variation and an extension of the semantics published first in [FGV04a] and [Far04] defined by the group of Uwe Glässer the Simon Fraser University, Vancouver, Canada. We namely add semantics for correlation handling, dead path elimination and event handling; we define the data handling on a finer level; we slightly alter the basic framework of how activities are formalized in [FGV04a] in order to achieve greater robustness against changes of the informal specification. Furthermore this technical report serves as a base for a joint work with the group of Simon Fraser University.
