Abstract
A key challenge of Web Service (WS) composition is how to ensure reliable execution. Due to their inherent autonomy and heterogeneity, it is difficult to reason about the behavior of service compositions especially in case of failures. Therefore, there is a growing interest for verification techniques which help to prevent service composition execution failures. In this paper, we present a proof and refinement based approach for the formal representation, verification and validation of Web Services transactional compositions using the Event-B method.
