[jwt-dev] AW: A question on Intermediate process models in JWT and STP
|
Hi Brian,
here at JWT we are well aware of the current work in STP.
Some of our contributors and project partners like Stéphane Drapeau
(Obeo), Alain Boulze (INRIA) or (a little bit) Adrian Mos
(INRIA) are also involved in STP or STP IM.
Concerning the differences between JWT and STP IM:
STP IM is a minimal set of elements that normally each kind
of process model (whether specified in BPMN, SCA, JBI, etc.) uses: there are
steps and transitions, conditions, attributes, etc. In JWT we have a similar set
of minimal elements, however currently not synchronized with the STP IM.
Additionally, we have several other elements, that are necessary to describe a
business process (similar to BPMN). We are in the progress of discussing how the
final STP IM should look like, but I can't say for sure that STP IM and JWT will
converge in the end (there are always political issues ;-).
In JWT we are already able to generate BPEL code (however,
the code has not yet been submitted to Eclipse), but without having
transformations to the STP IM. I fear that for the moment you need to have a
look at both, the STP IM efforts as well as the JWT project. After the
finalization of STP IM we will probably be able to say more about
this.
Best regards,
Florian

Hi
Florian,
I saw your
presentation on JWT at ESE a couple of months ago. Have just
heard Adrian Skehill of Iona talking about a similar topic in the STP (SOA
Tools) project, I was curious:
Are you aware
of that work in STP?
Are JWT
approach and the IM for STP fundamentally different?
Have you
coordinated with STP to jointly develop a single model?
I ask because ALF
uses BPEL for orchestration and might be able to consume what the JWT is
building. So I'm wondering, do I need to follow STP's process modeling
work as well, or have the two projects been aware of each other's work, so
I only need to be tracking the progress of one?
Thanks in
advance,
Brian
