Describing the semantics of services accurately plays a crucial role in service discovery, execution, composition and interaction. Formal specification techniques, having evolved over the past 30 years, can define the semantics of software systems in a verifiable and testable manner. This paper presents a new algebraic specification language called SOFIA for describing the semantics of services. It unifies the approaches using algebras and co-algebras for software specifications. A case study with a real industry example, the GoGrid cloud's resource management services, demonstrates that the semantics of services can be specified in SOFIA. |
