title = "VxBPEL-ODE: a variability enhanced service composition engine",
abstract = "Service compositions have become a powerful development paradigm to create distributed applications out of autonomous Web services. Since such applications are often deployed and executed in open and dynamic environments, variability management is a crucial enabling technique. To address the adaptation issue of service compositions, we proposed VxBPEL, an extension of BPEL for supporting variability, and a variability-based adaptive service composition approach which employs VxBPEL for variability implementation. In this paper, we present a VxBPEL engine for supporting the execution of VxBPEL service compositions. The engine is called VxBPEL-ODE and is implemented by extending a widely recognized open source BPEL engine, Apache ODE. We discuss key issues of developing VxBPEL-ODE, and three real-life service compositions are employed to evaluate and compare its performance with another VxBPEL engine we developed in our previous work. VxBPEL-ODE, together with analysis, design, and run-time management tools for VxBPEL, constitutes a comprehensive supporting platform for variability-based adaptive service compositions.",
