1 Managing EndToEnd OpeRations The Managing EndToEnd OpeRations project is a collection of Java programs for constructing and executing workflows. METEOR began in 1994 and now continues as METEOR-S \[verma03\] a project on semantic web services. These projects were used to create [IntelliGEN] \[kochut03\], a bioinformatics workflow systems that coordinated a number of web services. METEOR was also used to build an information management system for Genome Databases \[hall03\]. METEOR has also been used in several projects for business workflows and to illustrate quality of service issues in \[cardoso02\] and \[cardoso03\]. Main fields of interest in METEOR-S are: - semantic annotation and publicaton of Web services - abstract process composition (semantic-based composer advisor) - semantic discovery of Web services (ontologiy set based on RosettaNet proposition) - orchestration and compostion of Web services (based on constraint-driven decision engine) The latest version of METEOR-S software is supporting [BPEL4WS] process language. There is also a substantial effort in Quality of Service research. {table} Language | Formalism | Flow element | Workflow executor [BPEL4WS] | (??) | [Web service] | [BPWS4J] {table} 1 Resources - {link:METEOR-S site|http://lsdis.cs.uga.edu/Projects/METEOR-S/index.php} - {link:METEOR-S project architecture|http://lsdis.cs.uga.edu/Projects/METEOR-S/index.php?page=1} 2004-09-20 15:28:08.681 2004-09-13 11:19:27.086
