Composition of choreography automata
share
Choreography automata are an automata-based model of choreographies, that we show to be a compositional one. Choreography automata represent global views of choreographies (and rely on the well-known model of communicating finite-state machines to model local behaviours). The projections of well-formed global views are live as well as lock- and deadlock-free. In the class of choreography automata we define an internal operation of composition, which connects two global views via roles acting as interfaces. We show that under mild conditions the composition of well-formed choreography automata is well-formed. The composition operation enables for a flexible modular mechanism at the design level.
