Abstract
We present a finite representation of all services M where the composition with a given service N is deadlock-free, and a given set of activities of N can be covered (i.e. is not dead). Our representation is an extension of the existing notion of an operating guideline which only cared about deadlock freedom. We further present an algorithm to decide whether a service M matches with the extended operating guideline of N.
