Service-oriented computing proposes services as building blocks which can be composed to complex systems. To reason about the correctness of a service, its communication protocol needs to be analyzed. A fundamental correctness criterion for a service is the existence of a partner service, formalized in the notion of controllability. In this paper, we introduce Wendy, a Petri net-based tool to synthesize partner services. These partners are valuable artifacts to support the design, validation, verification, and adaptation of services. Furthermore, Wendy can calculate an operating guideline, a characterization of the set of all partners of a service. Operating guidelines can be used in many application scenarios from service brokerage to test case generation. Case studies show that Wendy efficiently performs on industrial service models.

A big issue in the paradigmof Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) is service discovery. Organizations publish their services via the Internet. These published services can then be automatically found and accessed by other services, meaning, the services are composed. A fundamental property of a service composition is weak termination, which guarantees the absence of deadlocks and livelocks. In principle, weak termination can be verified by inspecting the state space of the composition of (public views of) the involved services. We propose a methodology to build that state space from precomputed fragments, which are computed upon publishing a service. That way, we shift computation effort from the resource critical “find” phase to the less critical “publish” phase. Interestingly, our setting enables state space reduction methods that are intrinsically different from traditional state space reductions. We further show the positive impact of our approach to the computational effort of service discovery.
