Abstract
Creating BPEL model based on a Textual Description (TD) is crucial to its consistent analysis particularly by making information accessible to different stakeholders. However, producing or preserving TD-BPEL alignment is a problem especially when an organization develops or modifies a BEPL model. In fact, it is possible to identify misalignment between BPEL model and its documentation when modifications are not applied to both representations. In this paper, we propose a new methodology that helps business analyst to generate BPEL models that are aligned with their textual description. It applies an enriched structured template of a business concept to define a set of transformation rules. In addition, our methodology offers a complete alignment, which covers all BPEL elements. It is evaluated experimentally using the recall and precision rates as well as COSMIC Functional Size Measurement (FSM) method.
