Subject: Issue - R49 - Isolated Scopes
This issue has been added to the wsbpel issue list with a status of "received". The status will be changed to "open" if a motion to open the issue is proposed and that motion is approved by the TC. A motion could also be proposed to close it without further consideration. Otherwise it will remain as "received".
The issues list is posted as a Technical Committee document to the OASIS WSBPEL TC pages on a regular basis. The current edition, as a TC document, is the most recent version of the document entitled in the "Issues" folder of the WSBPEL TC document list - the next posting as a TC document will include this issue. The list editor's working copy, which will normally include an issue when it is announced, is available at this constant URL.
The isolated attribute of a scope, when set to "yes", provides control of concurrent access to shared resources:But the explanation reads:
Suppose two concurrent isolated scopes, S1 and S2, access a common set of variables and partner links (external to them) for read or write operations. The semantics of isolated scopes ensure that the results would be NO DIFFERENT if all conflicting activities (read/write and write/write activities) on all shared variables and partner links were conceptually reordered so that either all such activities within S1 are completed before any in S2 or vice versa.
Regard the following example.
Global variable xThen the result is not independent from the execution order of S1 and S2.Scope S1: sets x to 1 Scope S2: sets x to 2
S1 runs in parallel to S2.
Is there a mistake in the text?
Should it be something like following?
The semantics of isolated scopes ensure that all conflicting activities (read/write and write/write activities) are not executed in parallel. The order of execution is non-deterministic and thus the result is non-deterministic, too.
