The use of electronic commerce is spreading day to day to reach environments that have been rather unexplored until this moment, such as governments and administrations. More and more, administrations offer on-line services to the citizens of their countries or regions. It is becoming necessary to have a mechanism for the formal definition of these on-line electronic services (or e-services). Doing so, we would be able to automatically build systems capable to manage these new e-services. An important feature of e-services is that a workflow can be defined to control their development. These concepts do not only apply to e-government, but also to e-business and e-commerce in general. Early experience on the provision of professional e-services has helped us to take this approach. In this paper we present how e-services using workflow-based systems can be defined in a formal way with the target of building them automatically. For this purpose, we specify a method for expressing workflow information with XML and DAML-S and, more generally, to define workflow-based e-services. A functional model with the involved entities completes this. Finally, a real implementation of e-services is introduced. 1 |
