Abstract

Web services aim at spontaneously integrating services from different providers in ensuring at offering a user the best possible experience. The interrelationships between the concepts of security, performance and interoperability, while critical to any web service, are the key criteria in evaluating Web Services and their ability in meeting user requirements. This paper aims at exploring whether the use of the Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) in defining Web Services, can contribute towards enhancing the quality of the service delivered and improving the ability of evaluating suitable factors for ensuring secure and interoperable Web Service composition without compromising on performance.
