Ideally all the IOPEs that are needed to be specified for any service should be included both in the Profile and Process models. However specification of the IOPEs in the Profile may also depends on the criteria used by the matchmaker in the sense that some matchmakers may use only input -output parameters without considering the preconditions and effects. So it basically depends on the algorithm used. There always has to be a one-to-one correspondence between the mapping of IOPEs in the profile and process model which can be handled via "refersTo". >Am I correct to say that refersTo links the IOPEs in the profile to IOPEs in the *atomic* processes only? > > Yes. Intutively this also makes sense as the equivalence between the IOPEs of the composite processes and their corresponding atomic processes is specified separately anyways in the DataFlow file. Therefore we need to refer to only the Atomic Processes for correspondence from the profile. Hope this helps. Any other thoughts appreciated. >Many thanks. > >Maja Vukovic > >--- > >Rainbow Group -- Computer Laboratory -- University of Cambridge -- Tel: +44 1223 763 531 > > > >
