The modes view of WS-Engineer provides both verification of service modes architecture specifications and automated generation of Service Broker requirements for those modes.

 

A service mode architecture consists of a series of mode service collaborations.  Typically this will be constructed in UML2 (with a Service Modes profile applied).  UML2 Component Structure, Constraints, Activity, Sequence and State Machine Diagrams are translated to formal models and analysed for consistency and correctness.
