Abstract
Execution of real-world services can lead to many unexpected events that need to be handled. So that failures of tasks composed of such services frequently occur. Mechanisms for automated task accomplishment and failure handling in open and heterogeneous systems are proposed. They are based on general protocols derived from the well known OASIS Web Services Transaction standard WS-TX for business transactions. The protocols and mechanisms are implemented in the prototype Autero multi-robot system in which the robots cooperate so as to accomplish complex tasks.
