Current efforts have not enforced Web services as loosely coupled and autonomous entities. Web services and software agents have gained different focuses and accomplishments due to their development and application backgrounds. This chapter proposes service-oriented agents (SOAs) to unify Web services and software agents. Web services features can be well realized through introducing software agents’ sophisticated software modeling and interaction behaviors. We present a natural framework to integrate their related technologies into a cohesive body. Several critical challenges with SOAs have been addressed. The concepts, system and component structures, a meta-model driven semantic description, agent-oriented knowledge representation, and an implementation framework are proposed and investigated. They contribute to the identified setbacks with Web services technologies, such as dynamic composition, semantic description, and implementation framework. A prototype of the proposed SOAs implementation framework has been implemented. Several economic services are working on it.

FrameWeb (Framework-based Design Method for Web Engineering) incorporates concepts from categories of frameworks commonly used in the development of Web-based Information Systems into design models, defining the syntax of such models with meta-models. Based on Model-Driven Development (MDD) techniques, a CASE tool called FrameWeb Editor was built. In a separate eff ort, a code generation tool was proposed, but did not use the method’s MDD foundations. In this paper, we report on the integration of the code generator into the FrameWeb Editor and the FrameWeb meta-model.

Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) uses models as its main assets in the software development process. The structure of a model is described through a meta-model. Even though modelling and meta-modelling are recurrent activities in MDE and a vast amount of MDE tools exist nowadays, they are tasks typically performed in an unassisted way. Usually, these tools cannot extract useful knowledge available in heterogeneous information sources like XML, RDF, CSV or other models and meta-models.We propose an approach to provide modelling and meta-modelling assistance. The approach gathers heterogeneous information sources in various technological spaces, and represents them uniformly in a common data model. This enables their uniform querying, by means of an extensible mechanism, which can make use of services, e.g., for synonym search and word sense analysis. The query results can then be easily incorporated into the (meta-)model being built. The approach has been realized in the Extremo tool, developed as an Eclipse plugin. Extremo has been validated in the context of two domains – production systems and process modelling – taking into account a large and complex industrial standard for classification and product description. Further validation results indicate that the integration of Extremo in various modelling environments can be achieved with low effort, and that the tool is able to handle information from most existing technological spaces.

To decrease the difficulty of business process modeling, the domain-specific modeling (DSM) method and the frame of model driven architecture (MDA) were discussed in this paper. By applying DSM and MDA, the meta-model consisting of domain schema and domain template was established to simplify the business process. Then the character property, relationship property and operation of business-process-oriented DSM (BP-DSM) meta-model were described. The meta-model and application template would be consummated by continuous instantiation and abstraction of the domain concepts. By extracting and accumulating a large number of enterprises' templates within the same industry, the industry-oriented model template would be ultimately established.
