Hi Jianwu, Yes,that would be useful for my research (Interoperability between scientific workflow ) and if you can send me any documents or papers related to this KeplerWebService I will appreciate that also.
I have another question for you, I tried to import a web service in Kepler(the wsdl is attached), this service provide for operation add, subscribe, renewSubscription, and unsubscribe. I chose subscribe operation and then I clicked the Commit. I tried to use String Constant input type but this input allow me to insert just only one string but actually the input type for this operation should be several parameter. I used the same web service in Triana workflow and Triana allow me to use input unit called WSTypeGen that configure all parameters as you see in the second attachment file. I don't know which input type in kepler should I use to provide me with same result.
