Abstract :
Modular applications, components, and services are all ways of describing the product of an organization´s efforts to embody its capabilities in autonomous software modules. In fact, the integration of services using well-established workflow paradigms could amplify an organization´s capabilities with the creation of a full-blown, inter-organizational system of systems. This is the essence of Web-scale workflows. Considering the recent popularity and acceptance of service-oriented technologies, the application of such distributed systems is only limited by imagination, but it´s also important to understand existing research challenges and their implications to various Web-scale workflow domains.
