The composition of elementary web services to larger-scale services has become an important means to enhance e-business collaborations. If such composite web services can also integrate legacy components that are not yet provided as web services, the number of possible compositions is increased. Following a process-oriented approach, the compositions can be described as control- and data-flow between available web services and components. This paper discusses the Business Process Execution Language for Web Services (BPEL4WS), an existing service composition language, and proposes UML-WSC as an alternative, visual language. For the advanced description of service interfaces, UML-WSC extends the type system of the established Web Service Definition Language (WSDL).
