摘要:The web service technology has still proved its effectiveness in the digital revolution we are facing. This success unfortunately raises more and more complex obstacles, particularly related to the service composition. The integration of Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs) in each step of service composition process, starting with abstract service composition specification to the generation of the verified and concrete composed services, represents one of them. Furthermore, this complexity remains more difficult when NFRs are addressed in both quantifiable (i.e. Quality of Service) and behavioral aspects. Despite the relevant contributions present in the literature, this challenge still remains an open issue when considering NFRs modeling, publishing, integrating with each other, and handling conflicts and dependencies in the whole composition’s lifecycle. As a consequence, we suggest this contribution that aims to propose an approach showing how to weave efficiently required NFRs with functional requirements in a complete lifecycle composition supporting specification, formalization, model checking verification and integration steps of desired concrete composite service. Patient Health Records in Regional and University Health Centers in Morocco is used as a case study to experiment our approach.
