ABSTRACT
The emerging standards for the publication of Web Services
enable the invocation of services having simple interaction
protocols, but they fail to support complex e-business inter-
actions, where the peers exchange several messages. In or-
der to extend the classes of services which can be invoked by
the consumers, we propose a conversational model support-
ing the management of complex interactions between clients
and Web Services. Our model supports the consumer in the
management of a conversation which respects the business
logic of the service without imposing the explicit manage-
ment of the conversational context.
