For this purpose, research work in PAIS was interested in aligning business processes and services in order to achieve a good connection between business process models as represented in the process layer, and service models as represented in the application layer In this context, to improve the reuse of business processes and services, the concepts of configurable process models and configurable services (which support variability) have emerged as new leading edge concepts for improving reuse. Indeed, variability refers to the characteristic of a system to adapt, specialize and configure itself with the context of use. More recently, configurable process models become the most popular solution to deal with adaptability in a PAIS. This has increased the research focus in how to extract services from configurable process models. Several approaches have developed solutions for proposing services generation from business process. However, generating configurable services from configurable process model has been neglected in the context of PAIS. In this paper, we propose an MDA approach for an automatic generation of configurable service models from configurable process models. {\textcopyright} 2005 - 2015 JATIT \& LLS.
