Abstract :
WS-BPEL Extension for People (BPEL4People) introduces human activity to Web Services Business Process Execution Language (WSBPEL/ BPEL). Some works have been done on the performance verification of WS-BPEL, but there are not works on the performance verification of WSBPEL4People. In this paper, we propose a model method for the transformation of WS-BPEL4People / BPEL4People into Generalized Stochastic Petri Nets (GSPN) and this way evaluate its performance. During the transformation, Petri Net is used to model BPEL activities and the human activity of a human task. Then, by validating the generated model, some potential problems with performance of WS-BPEL4People is detected.
