Diploma Thesis from the year 2006 in the subject Computer Science - Software, grade: 1,3, Schmalkalden University of Applied Sciences, language: English, abstract: “Orchestration is the study and practice of arranging music for an orchestra or musical ensemble. In practical terms it consists of deciding which instruments should play which notes in a piece of music.” [Wiki] In musical terms, the orchestra would be made up of Web services, BPEL would be the sheet music and the business process manager (BPM) would be the composer that selects the necessary Web services and decides how they should interact with each other. Organizations use Web services in two broad categories, Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) and Business-to-Business (B2B) e-commerce as well as less complex scenarios such as technical functions and information services (common services). This thesis provides an insight on how the Web service standards resolve the limitations of conventional middleware and extend the benefits of process management to a wider scope of business problems. Web service standards like SOAP, XML, WSDL, and BPEL enable customers to solve integration problems easily by providing interoperability within a company or across multiple companies and improve B2B eCommerce and supply chain management by shifting to a service-oriented paradigm in application development. Web service orchestration provides an open, standards-base approach to create high-level business processes, such as workflows. This thesis will focus on BPEL for describing the business logic, although competing standards are still in use. The steps for the workflow implementation will be explained on the basis of a sample procurement scenario.

This book provides extensive insight into the possibilities and challenges of XML in building new information management solutions in networked organizations. After a brief introduction to Web communication features and XML fundamentals, the book examines the benefits of adopting XML and illustrates various types of XML use: XML in document management; XML for data-centric and multimedia components; XML as a format for metadata, including metadata for the Semantic Web; and XML in support of data interchange between software applications and among organizations. The challenges of adopting XML in large-scale information management are also discussed. In addition, applications across a broad spectrum are examined and numerous case studies pertaining to the adoption of XML are presented. The book is particularly suitable for courses offered in Information Studies, Information Systems, or Information Technology. It also serves as an excellent practical guide for professionals in information management and provides important support material for courses in Computer Science and in Business.

XML-based Content Management: Integration, Methodologies and Tools covers the design and deployment of XML-based solutions and how to manage content and metadata, a practice that requires a more methodological approach than those traditionally applied to the design and deployment of document and content management solutions. The extensive use of XML implies the need of adding additional activities, quality controls, and tools to the established document-management and web-application design processes. The book describes a methodology that covers the different phases of the content and metadata management lifecycle, from generation, to archiving, to compliance with existing content management and archiving standards. In addition, the book reviews the key characteristics of the tools necessary for storage, retrieval and delivery. Focuses on methodologies for the design and deployment of XML-based content management solutions based on standards like BMPN and SPEM Provides an updated view of consolidated technologies for structured data management Explains the link between technologies for content storage and distribution Presents the conceptual knowledge to understand and relate the strategic view provided by OAIS with the management of daily operations focused on content collection, aggregation and publishing
