<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=987</link>
<description><![CDATA[This paper describes a Service-Oriented Computing Kit (SOCK), which is an overarching framework covering the key artifacts in planning, modeling, designing, developing, deploying, and managing service-oriented solutions in the enterprise computing space. Based on a divide-and-conquer strategy, this comprehensive kit is a systematic taxonomy to abstract complexities and organize the major aspects of service-oriented development, so that the roles, responsibilities, accountabilities, skillsets, procedures and deliverables can be clearly defined for the IT teams to effectively construct service-oriented systems. SOCK comprises eight modules – Architecture, Process, Integration, Environment, Technology, Development, Management, and Roadmap. Each module addresses specific technical concerns in particular areas. SOA provides the service definitions, service catalog, service composition, scope of applications and portfolios, and service architecture modeling methodology. SOP deals with the business process management, process modeling &amp; notations, process orchestration, coordination/collaborations, human interactions, and 1-phase commit compensation for long-lived processes. SOI concentrates on the service interoperability, integration patterns, enterprise service bus, traditional synchronous/asynchronous enterprise application integration, and integration with portals and content management systems. SOE consists of the runtime infrastructure, service registry for discovery and directory, service transformation/routing gateway, service virtualization via grid computing, and quality-of-services compliance with service-level agreements. SOT covers the implementation technologies – web services, standards and specifications, technical patterns, convergence, and aspect-oriented techniques. SOD is composed of the development lifecycle, programming model, design/development tools, frameworks, reusable utilities/toolkits/components, and model-driven approaches. SOM includes services &amp; policies repository in service identification and categorization, security mechanisms, business activity monitoring, reporting, BI, and provisioning. SOR handles the planning/blueprint, strategy, KPI dashboards, governance, and organization. The elements in each module are further decomposed to form loose semantic associations. This holistic kit has been implemented on an open source mind-mapping platform, which is used in guiding the migration from the conventional multi-tier web application style to a service-oriented paradigm in the financial services sector, and SOCK has proven to be an effective approach to pragmatically transitioning to the new computing mode. <a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2006/2670/00/2670toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2006.92">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[In a competitive business landscape, banks are under pressure to innovate, improvise and differentiate their products and services while continuing to reduce the time-to-market for new product introductions. The rise of new businesses and newer ways of doing existing businesses has significantly influenced the need for a better assessment of the business value realized from the IT investments. Client Relationship managers, Product managers etc are facing the need to be innovative and flexible in their offerings to the client and they demand an agile delivery infrastructure (process &amp; IT) to support them in this regard. In banks operating multiple lines of businesses, generating a Single view of the customer is a critical both from a marketing perspective as well as Risk Management perspective.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=981</link>
<description><![CDATA[The nature of the relationship between the IT function and the Lines of Business shapes the policies for managing business services. In particular, the selection of lines of authority and and financial model for the ITfunction dictates which business objectives drive the management of competing business demands for shared IT resources and services. This paper proposes to model business service management policies in a three-layer hierarchy and studies the impact of IT Governance models on those policies. A software embodiment for the management of those policies is also highlighted.

<description><![CDATA[B2B and long running B2C process are a complex business process that contains set of services, state, transaction management, and involve notification of events occur during the execution of process. Business processes are driven by events and evaluating the business processes at regional or national scale reveals diversity in products, terminology and processes involved in carrying out a complete business activity. Because of dynamic nature, heterogeneity and lack of knowledge among business partner there is a need of mechanism to compose services dynamically according to events, and to provide interoperable integration for automation of business process. We proposed convergence of semantic web, web services and grid computing to achieve context and location based interoperable integration, event-driven dynamic composition, scalable architecture and middleware support for state, transaction, notification and lifecycle management of business process.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=605</link>
<description><![CDATA[Service-oriented computing (SOC) is viewed as the computing paradigm of the near future, allowing for the dynamic interaction of services provided by distributed business partners. Being a declarative knowledge representation model, ontologies serve as a foundation for SOC. Due to the heterogeneous nature of independently designed ontologies, it is problematic for partners to understand the concepts adopted in ontologies from other sources. In order for partners to achieve seamless collaboration of services, they need to reconcile their ontologies with each other. During the alignment process and the following service interactions, compatibility is an important measurement that has been neglected in most research work. We extend a vector system to encode ontology compatibility. In addition, we present a new model - probabilistic center ontology - for better recording and maintenance of ontology alignment results. Our precise and efficient approach is verified by both theoretic proofs and experimental results<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2006/2670/00/2670toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2006.77">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Semantic Web services (SWSs) extend current Web services standards to help facilitate their usages. While current SWS approaches have shown some early promising results, they have focused on somewhat unrealistic use-cases that make various problematic assumptions and focus on somewhat farfetched usage scenarios. In this paper we present a category of use case scenarios for SWSs that centers around keeping human users in the automation process while facilitating their activities. We demonstrate our approach with a simplified scenario and highlight some of the details of our architecture and implementation. Finally, we also discuss how our approach could be extended and applied in other domains; namely, the domain of asset-based business approach to creating IT computing infrastructure <a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2006/2670/00/2670toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2006.87">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=607</link>
<description><![CDATA[External business processes (choreography models) are currently disconnected from internal processes (workflow models), which leads to synchronisation and verification problems. Connecting these by directly mapping internal to external processes requires a quadratic amount of mappings; an intermediate ontology reduces the amount of necessary mappings but is not trivial to construct due to the variety in workflow meta-models. We introduce our multi meta-model process ontology ( m3po), which is based on various existing reference models and languages from the workflow and choreography domain. The m3po ontology relates workflow models to choreography models and allows choreography extraction from internal workflow models. An initial validation is given by translating an IBM Websphere MQ Workflow model into the m3po ontology and subsequently extracting an Abstract BPEL model from the ontology.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=608</link>
<description><![CDATA[One of the major difficulties for service-based application designers and developers is ensuring that the services participating in a distributed application are compatible when composed together under Service Oriented Architectures. This paper examines this problem, and proposes a set of solutions by first defining ways of specifying compatibility conditions on contracts using standards such as WS-BusinessActivity and then presenting a tool that enables application developers check those conditions at design time.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=609</link>
<description><![CDATA[Using Service Level Agreements (SLAs) is a central concept for the Grid commercialization since customers require guarantees for a successful job execution. However, agreeing on SLAs is a business risk for resource providers: system failures can lead to paying tremendous penalties. Accordingly, resource providers require an estimation about the risk of agreeing on an SLA. Furthermore, risks can be published and integrated into the negotiations as an additional SLA parameter. Each offer is linked with a possible execution on a specific resource since the risk of failure depends especially on the resource’s stability. Therewith making reservations is the initial step for integrating risk management into the Grid. This paper describes the necessary workflow and measurements for selecting a resource according to assessed risks. A global perspective is presented in order to afford user-specific configurations. Concrete examples for several measurements present one possibility for rating and the important input factors. <a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2006/2670/00/2670toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2006.102">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=610</link>
<description><![CDATA[A virtual organization (VO) is a dynamic collection of entities (individuals, enterprises, and information resources) collaborating on some computational activity. VOs are an emerging means to model, enact, and manage largescale service computations. VOs consist of autonomous, heterogeneous members, often exhibiting complex behaviors. Thus VOs are a natural match for policy-based approaches. Traditional policybased frameworks emphasize reactive behaviors, wherein an external request causes a policy engine to compute a response. However, business service settings require richer policies and call for proactive behaviors. A business not only must respond to explicit requests, but also monitor its environment, collate events, and potentially act in anticipation of events in order to ensure that its policies are satisfied. Autonomous, heterogeneous, proactive entities are best modeled as agents and, therefore, VOs are best understood as multiagent systems. Our main contributions are (1) a proactive multiagent policy-based architecture, (2) a hierarchical model of policy monitoring, compliance checking, and enforcement for VOs, and (3) a formalization of VOs. We evaluate our approach using a real business service scenario.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=611</link>
<description><![CDATA[This paper presents a distributed service management infrastructure called BISE. One distinguishing feature of BISE is its adoption of the Peer-to-Peer (P2P) model in support of realtime service managements. BISE offers significant advantages over existing systems in scalability, resilience, and manageability. Current P2P algorithms are mainly developed for the file-sharing applications running on desktops, which have characteristics dramatically different from enterprise data centers. This difference led us to design our own P2P algorithms specifically optimized for enterprise environments. Based on these algorithms, we implemented a P2P substrate called BiseWeaver (25,000 lines of Java code) as the core of BISE. Our evaluation on a set of distributed machines shows that BiseWeaver is efficient and robust, and provides timely monitoring data in support of proactive SLA management.

<description><![CDATA[Context-aware Web service is an interactive model between the context of service requesters and the services in Web-enabled environments. We envision that providing context-aware services is the first step toward ubiquitous Web services to enhance current Web-based e-business by finding right business partners, right business information, and right business services in the right place at the right time. The major contributions of this paper are the development of our context model and Context Aware Service Oriented Architecture (CA-SOA). We have developed a context model to formally describe and acquire contextual information pertaining to the service requesters and services. Based on the model, we have constructed CA-SOA for ubiquitous Web service discovery and access based on service and requesters’ surrounding context. <a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2006/2670/00/2670toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2006.110">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=613</link>
<description><![CDATA[This paper presents a language-based approach to service deployment. The language is called Abacus, which is a service-oriented programming language for grid applications. In Abacus, a service is abstracted as a basic language construct, and service deployment is expressed by a deployment statement. This approach allows an Abacus application to automatically deploy a service at runtime without any configuration information. This paper compares the development detail in the Abacus environment with that in the manual deployment environment, and evaluates our deployment approach accordingly. On the one hand, this approach frees maintainers from annoying deployment work at low-level, which helps to enhance the productivity in building grid applications. On the other hand, this approach allows services to be deployed according to the application logic, helping to improve the utilization and the management of various grid resources.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=614</link>
<description><![CDATA[Engineering approach for transforming business process and workforce management is an emerging area that is gaining increasing interest for its many promising applications in service science. Yet, three major challenges stand out in engineering any business transformation process. The first challenge is accurate modeling of the transformation knowledge that may be scattered across multiple application domains. The second challenge is efficient and precise real-time evaluation based on the knowledge model. The third challenge will be to generate intelligent recommendations about business transformation that can significantly improve the business process and drive down opportunity costs. This paper proposes an integrated knowledge modeldriven recommender system that effectively addresses all of the three abovementioned challenges of modeling, evaluating, and recommending. Using a real-world case study on warranty processing at a major automotive manufacturer, this paper presents a novel business transformation framework that consists of a knowledge model on business value drivers and metrics, an evaluation engine for processing real-time business events, and a recommendation engine that utilizes information obtained from the evaluation engine to suggest new processes and workforce allocation strategy, which can be subjected to a new cycle of modeling and evaluation to complete a feedback loop. Our experimental study using the real-world data results in a "25/75" rule in predictive warranty data processing: 25% of information contains 75% of business information entropy, thereby demonstrating the effectiveness of the system.

<description><![CDATA[The need for having interoperable systems despite the presence of heterogeneous platforms has resulted in tremendous growth and acceptance of Web Services in recent years. This success of Web Services technology is fueling research efforts towards generalization into a science for Service Oriented Computing (SOC). However, beyond the basic publish-find-bind model there is not much consensus yet on what are the architectural building blocks of a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). In this paper, we present a semantic model for SOC that is based upon established and well proven techniques of object oriented paradigm.

<description><![CDATA[Service discovery of state dependent services has to take workflow aspects into account. To increase the usability of a service discovery, the result list of services should be ordered with regard to the relevance of the services. Means of ordering a list of workflows due to their similarity with regard to a query are missing. This paper presents a pilot of an empirical study on the influence of different measures on workflow similarity. It turns out that, although preliminary, relations between different measures are indicated and that a similarity definition depends on the application scenario in which the service discovery is applied

<description><![CDATA[Business process management in service-oriented computing (SOC) environments poses special challenges. In particular, SOC environments are dynamic, thereby requiring frequent changes in business processes. Current business process modeling approaches handle such changes in an ad hoc manner, and lack a principled means of determining what needs to be changed and where. This paper addresses process adaptability through a novel application of business protocols, especially of protocol composition, introduced in our previous work. Through a real business scenario of auto-insurance claim processing, this paper demonstrates how a wide range of adaptations can be handled naturally and systematically via protocol composition. The illustrated adaptations have been evaluated via a prototype

<description><![CDATA[Web services are an ideal implementation platform for integrating disparate legacy systems because they are platform-independent. Enterprise Integration Patterns (EIP) represent possible design solutions that may be used to construct these enterprise integration solutions. Constructing design solutions with EIP that build on the platform-independence allowed by web services requires that the former be converted into mechanisms that may be implemented with the latter. One such mechanism is conversation models that may be used to implement interactions among web services representing different legacy systems. No methodologies exist that designers can use to construct integration solutions using web services and EIP in this manner. In this paper, we outline such a methodology that generates the design elements in the form of conversation policies for web services.

We design a QoS framework and associated algorithms that can provide prioritized and fair media streaming based on service level agreements. We formulate the QoS support as a Multiple Choice Multiple Knapsack optimization and design several low-complexity algorithms to provide approximate solutions. We bound the performance of these algorithms, and evaluate them in terms of the number of clients supported and QoS provided over realistic simulation scenarios.

<description><![CDATA[Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is an approach for building distributed systems that deliver application functionality as a set of self-contained business-aligned services with well-defined and discoverable interfaces. This paper presents a systematic and architecture-centric framework, named Service Oriented Architecture Framework (SOAF), to ease the definition, the design and the realization of SOA in order to achieve a better business and IT alignment. The proposed framework is businessprocess centric and comprises a set of structured activities grouped in five phases. It incorporates a range of techniques and guidelines for systematically identifying services, deciding service granularity and modeling services while integrating existing operational/legacy systems. The results from a pilot validation of SOAF for SOA enablement of a realistic Securities Trading application are presented. Best practices and lessons learned are also discussed.

<description><![CDATA[This paper proposes to enhance the dynamism and the flexibility of Java Enterprise Edition (EE) servers by introducing a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) inside. The purpose is to ease the deployment and offer dynamic server configuration and reconfiguration. Such an approach limits consumed resources and is capable of context adaptation. After defining the properties that must be verified for the service platform, we propose to use OSGi technology as the basis for the architecture. We have experimented with integrating OSGi into Java EE servers. Moreover, this architecture has been chosen for the next generation of JOnAS ObjectWeb's open source Java EE implementation.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=625</link>
<description><![CDATA[Organizations are increasingly faced with the challenge of managing business processes, workflows, and, recently, Web processes. One important aspect of processes that has been overlooked is their complexity. High complexity in processes may result in bad understandability, errors, defects, and exceptions leading processes to need more time to develop, test, and maintain. Therefore, excessive complexity should be avoided. This paper describes an experiment designed to validate the Control-Flow Complexity (CFC) metric that we have proposed in our previous work. In order to demonstrate that our CFC metric serves the purpose it was defined for, we have carried out an empirical validation by means of a controlled experiment. The explanation of the steps followed to do the experiment, the results, and the conclusions obtained are the main objectives of this paper.

<description><![CDATA[Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) has been marked as the technology trend which caters for the interoperability among the components of a distributed system. However, the emergence of various incompatible instantiations of the SOC paradigm e.g. web, grid and p2p services, as well as the interoperability problems encountered within each of these instantiations (e.g. web service interoperability problems addressed by the WS-I Basic Profile) state clearly that interoperability is still elusive. In order to address this problem we first need to identify all problem dimensions and consequently to provide appropriate solutions. Within this paper we describe a set of interoperability dimensions that need to be considered and we present a generic service model which we view as a first step in addressing some of the identified problem dimensions.

<description><![CDATA[Current composite web service development and management solutions, e.g. BPEL, do not cater for flexible and adaptive business collaborations due to their pre-defined and inflexible nature that precludes them accommodating business dynamics. In this paper we propose a rule driven approach for adaptive business collaboration development in which rules drive and govern the development process. We firstly introduce the Business Collaboration Context Framework (BCCF), which provides enterprizes with the context required for business collaboration. We then explain our model driven approach with which enterprises can capture this context in business collaboration models. Subsequently we demonstrate how we utilize rules to drive the development and management of such models, as such facilitating flexible and adaptive business collaboration.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=628</link>
<description><![CDATA[In E-service environment, enterprises need to collaborate to achieve a common business goal in loose-coupling manner. Therefore, it is of great necessity to develop a service interoperation technique that is capable of handling the collaboration among distributed business processes. The Web services architecture defines separate specifications for the choreography and orchestration of Web services. This paper proposes a service choreography solution for business collaboration across organizations boundaries while preserving the local autonomy of their own business processes. A centralized service choreography process is built for specification of the global business process, and then it is transformed to decentralized choreography processes amongst the participants for peer-to-peer interaction. For each participant, a data dependency based process mediation model is developed to facilitate the adaptation between the local pre-established business process and its corresponding decentralized choreography process. This mediation means can ensure the privacy and autonomy of local business process and the adaptability of choreography process. A system architecture is implemented to support our solution in ONCE PI project.

<description><![CDATA[End-user service composition is a promising way to ensure flexible, quick and personalized information provision and utilization, and consequently to better cope with spontaneous business requirements. For end-users to compose services directly, issues like service granularity, service organization and businesslevel semantics are critical. End-users will certainly be at loss if they have to select from a long list of available Web services expressed in IT jargons. This article introduces the concept of personalized active service spaces and focuses on the use of business services, service dependency rules, and service personalization rules to support end-user service composition. It addresses two key issues in end-user composition: how to utilize the user preference and context to restrict the scope of applicable services for selection, and how to capture and utilize dependencies or usage patterns between services in order to provide guidance and enforce temporal/sequential restrictions on service invocations for end-user service compositions.

<description><![CDATA[Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is an architectural style to reuse and integrate subsystems in existing systems for designing new applications. Each application is designed in an implementation independent manner using abstract concepts: network services and connections between network services. In SOA, the non-functional aspects of services and connections should be described separately from their functional aspects because different applications use services and connections in different non-functional contexts. This paper proposes a UML profile to graphically design the non-functional aspects in SOA and maintain them in an implementation independent manner. This paper presents the design of the proposed UML profile and describes how it is used in service-oriented application development.

<description><![CDATA[Architecture views are a popular technique used for documenting and describing software systems architecture through a number of views, each of which cater to a certain group of stakeholders. With the increasing adoption of service oriented architecture and the deployment of Web Service based applications both internally and externally, organizations need an improved framework for representing and documenting the service architecture. To this end, we propose a well defined set of views that describe services within the enterprise, including primitive as well as composite service views. In this manner, the proposed model achieves consistency and coherence among different views, thus providing a unified view model for service oriented systems within an organization.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=635</link>
<description><![CDATA[When deploying a service, software systems required by the service should be configured correctly. However, since software has tens or hundreds of configuration parameters and the parameters of different software may have simple or complex, explicit or implicit dependencies and constraints, to configure multiple software systems in service deployment becomes a difficult, error-prone and time-consuming task. In this paper, we propose a model based approach to automated configuration. Motivated by two real cases found in IBM software products and solutions, our approach has three contributions. Firstly, a meta-model of configuration, called software resource configuration model, is defined for integrating configuration parameters and experiences of different software into a global model. Secondly, a set of configuration rules are designed for verifying incorrect configuration that violates constraints specified by service deployment engineers. Thirdly, a supporting tool, called Comfort, is implemented and evaluated by the motivating cases.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=636</link>
<description><![CDATA[With the number of services presented on the open Internet growing at an explosive speed, it subsequently brings great challenges to the accurate, efficient and automatic retrieval of target services for consumers. At present, many service matchmaking algorithms are proposed. However, most of them deem that a service is equal to a single functional unit or several separate units. In fact, a service may contain several functional units which are not separated from each other. Some implied relations may exist among the functional units so that they can be composed to provide new functions. This paper proposes a new service matchmaking algorithm that takes the composition of functional units within a service into consideration. This algorithm has been applied in a service composition framework called DartFlow. Our experimental data show that this novel service matchmaking outperforms others in terms of the recall rate and precision.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=637</link>
<description><![CDATA[This paper presents a specification for a domainindependent, symmetrical, two-party negotiation protocol to reach binding agreements between services based on the principles of contract law. The protocol is necessary as existing specifications, such as WS-Agreement, lack the capability to form negotiated agreements and lack sufficient rigor in their design. This leads to ambiguities in their interpretations and, therefore, possible interoperability problems between different implementations. The negotiation protocol fits into the modular, high-level framework also presented here, that can be completed using a variety of existing contract monitoring and management procedures.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=638</link>
<description><![CDATA[Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is an approach for building distributed systems that deliver application functionality as a set of self-contained business-aligned services. It promises lower integration costs, increased reusability and improved enterprise agility and adaptability. One of the key obstacles for SOA is the presence of existing legacy applications that support critical business processes but are inflexible and hard to adapt for integration with other business applications. This paper presents a survey of key approaches to integrate/transform legacy applications into services to participate in an enterprise-wide SOA. It also presents a decision framework to guide architects in selecting the optimal combination of legacy modernization options.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=640</link>
<description><![CDATA[The expanding gap between microprocessor and disk performance has initiated new techniques of providing memory as a service in high-end computing (HEC). Although the processor and disk densities have improved over the last decades, the improvement of disk performance is inferior to that of processors, which is causing a bottleneck for HEC. With the rapid growth of network technology for cluster computers, the idea of accessing memory of an idle peer node has proven to be faster than accessing a disk. With this motivation, many researchers developed systems that offer idle memory as a service. In this paper, we present a brief survey of various systems that offer memory service in improving the disk access performance and discuss the scope of applying service oriented architecture (SOA) for HEC.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=641</link>
<description><![CDATA[The main target of IT architects being responsible for complex and heterogeneous IT architectures is to align IT to business needs at the lowest costs possible. A recent approach to this issue are Service Oriented Architectures (SOA). In order to design and deploy a SOA methodological and technological aspects have to be taken into account. This contribution focuses on methodological aspects like how to find appropriate service domains and an appropriate granularity of the services. Therefore existing business processes, organizational structures and their linkage with the different elements of an organization’s IT landscape will be analyzed. The paper presents a software system for automatically analyzing enterprise architectures incorporating clustering algorithms developed for analyzing community structures in a network oriented fashion. It will be shown, how clustering and visualization of enterprise architecture networks improve the understanding of underlying structures of enterprise architectures and thus lead to a better design of SOA.  <a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2006/2670/00/2670toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2006.52">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=642</link>
<description><![CDATA[To integrate heterogeneous distributed systems, there exist various researches and developments for the purpose of its adoption into enterprise environment. However, when service-oriented technologies are applied, it is difficult to adopt directly existing software system development methodologies, because of the primary elements of service-oriented architecture such as service provider, service requestor and service repository. In this paper, we define a conceptual model for developing systems in service-oriented computing. The model involves procedures and guidelines based on the Use Case model that is elicited from a business domain in requirement analysis. We focus on how to identify and how to determine key realization decisions for each service. The benefit of the identification method based on the Use Case model is that the service has reflected the business of the domain well and is in its proper granularity. The assessment guideline can help the settlement of a problem that is to determine the implementation strategy.

<description><![CDATA[The Technology and Information Platform (TIP) is a three-dimensional architecture framework to effectively cope with the architecture complexity and manage the architectural assets of information system applications in a service-oriented paradigm. This holistic framework comprises the Generic Architecture Stack (GAS), which is made up of a series of architecture layers, and the Contextual Spectrums, which consist of the Process, Abstraction, Latitude, and Maturity (PALM) dimensions. This paper describes the detailed attributes in the four dimensions of the Contextual Spectrums. The Process dimension covers operations, risk, financial, resources, estimation, planning, execution, policies, governance, compliance, organizational politics, etc. The Abstraction dimension deals with what, why, who, where, when, which and how (6W+1H). The Latitude dimension includes principles, functional, logical, physical, interface, integration &amp; interoperability, access &amp; delivery, security, quality of services, patterns, standards, tools, skills, and so forth. Finally the Maturity dimension is about performance, metrics, competitive assessment, scorecards, capacity maturity, benchmarks, service management, productivity, gap analysis, transition, etc.

<description><![CDATA[This paper is based on the view that the adoption of service oriented architectures (SOA) by large information system (IS) vendors might push software development towards an industrialized mode of operation. The emergence of such a software ecosystem is analyzed through an innovation perspective. The special nature of software as an intellectual technology, thus being an intangible product as opposed to physical products, is given special emphasis. Since digital products are expensive to produce, but cheap to reproduce, it is argued on the basis of a resource-based view that this ecosystem should not solely be built on the trading of software, but also on the exchange of business knowledge.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=646</link>
<description><![CDATA[Service composition aims to provide the efficient and accurate model of a service, based on which the global service oriented architecture (SOA) can be realized, allowing the value-added services to be generated on the fly. Because of distributed responsibilities, ownership, and control, often, it is not feasible to acquire all information needed for the service composition, thus there might be no guarantee that the service execution has an anticipated effect. In this paper, we are going to extend current Semantic Web Service Description by introducing the concept of "Service Assumption" which allows reasoning with incomplete information. Furthermore, together with the proposed service assumption, a sequence of rules is developed to describe all permitted behaviors in service composition context.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=647</link>
<description><![CDATA[This paper aims to develop a bargaining model for calculation of individual tariffs for mobile service bundles. The paper first looks shortly at the intrinsic drivers of individual tariffs both from sociological and economic perspectives. It proceeds with a bargaining model for individual tariffs which is centered on user and supplier behaviours. The user, instead of being fully rational, has "bounded rationality" and his behaviours are not only subject to economic constraints but also influenced by social needs. Individual tariffs are decided through interactions between the user and the supplier. Game theory is employed to provide structured analyses of the interactions and tariff design. Preliminary results, which are based on a music training service, show that individual tariffs can be beneficial to both the user and the supplier.

<description><![CDATA[Order processing is an important application on Services Computing. On the conceptual side, business process management helps model such applications. On the practical side, workflow systems help implement such systems. We propose the Navigation Plan concept for order processing. Business steps in order processing are mapped into Process Algebra and composed into Navigation Plans. On the practical side, Navigation Plans are directly executed in the RiverFish Architecture, thus guaranteeing the properties predicted by Process Algebra. Thus a well-defined order processing application is implemented into a reliable cooperative information system. A widely used application (the DECA system for requesting business TaxID involving several government agencies) demonstrates the usefulness of the Navigation Plan concept in practice.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=652</link>
<description><![CDATA[The need for cost-effective platform independent means of application invocation has fuelled technologies like Web services. Web services technology has found its application in a number of interesting ways, one of them being in creation of universal interoperable remote portlets. Web Services for Remote Portlets (WSRP) is a standard that allows aggregator applications to consume remote portlets based on Web services interfaces. XML vocabularies like RSS (Really Simple Syndication) or domain specific syndication syntactic frameworks allow for creation of raw data that can understood by a wide range of consuming portals and web sites. Usually individual aggregators consume these raw data feeds and render it in some required UI (User Interface) format. This approach requires that every single aggregator have a custom rendering application for generation of user specific UI, leading to considerable replication of effort. We take a wholistic view of the problem statement and propose an end to end architectural approach that combines usage of WSRP along with XML syndication feeds like RSS for creation of standards based, customizable, and dynamically generated reusable UI that can be consumed by aggregators like Portals.

<description><![CDATA[This paper proposes key requirements and interfaces for the management of life cycle of context-aware and personalized mobile services. The main rationale behind the work presented here is that the service management component should be designed in such as a way that life cycle aspects should emerge from within service management components themselves as an integral part of overall services management. The features of context-aware applications and services should be reflected in life cycle management. Furthermore, standard practices of the mobile network industry must be taken into account for any serious effort to deal with this issue. All these aspects have guided and provided impetus for the work presented. Therefore this work is easily applicable in industry applications and proposes a clear-cut association between requirements and interfaces.

<description><![CDATA[Mobile handheld devices such as PDAs and smartphones are increasingly being used by service providers to deliver application functionality similar to that found in traditional desktop computing environments. However, these handheld applications can be quite slow and often lack important functionality compared to their desktop counterparts.We have developed PASSPORT, (PDA Application Streaming Service PORTal) a thin-client solution that leverages more powerful servers to run full-function desktop applications and then simply stream screen updates to the PDA for display. PASSPORT uses server-side screen scaling to provide high-fidelity display and seamless mobility across a broad range of different clients and screen sizes, including both portrait and landscape viewing modes. PASSPORT also leverages existing PDA control buttons to improve system usability and maximize available screen resolution for application display.We have implemented PASSPORT on Windows PDAs and demonstrate that it can provide superior application performance and functionality compared to the traditional approach of running applications directly on handheld devices.

<description><![CDATA[The deployment of pricing schemes for communication services is driven by the network technologies. QoS is a major factor that affects the choice of a pricing scheme for a given network. In this paper, we explore a pricing scheme that uses service profiles, which define the QoS received from accessing a common resource pool. Through resource sharing between the profiles, maximisation of network resource utilisation is achieved. In this paper, the mathematical model of the proposed pricing scheme is presented, together with QoS evaluation results.

<description><![CDATA[Data management plays an important role in the fields of grid system. In conventional fields of software applications, like e-business applications, the single logical view of various types of distributed data resource and fine-grained access control are the most important requirements. The design and implementation of data management system which is responsible for meeting these requirements in the ebusiness application is proposed in this paper. The developed prototype of this data management system, as a very important component of the service-oriented Manufacturing Grid (MGrid) project, provides one single logical view to multiple heterogeneous storage resources so that these resources can be used in a uniform way by higher level applications. Also, finegrained access control and the better reliability, manageability, location transparency, expandability and performance are also provided.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=659</link>
<description><![CDATA[This paper defines a service-oriented Solution Architecture for N-Tier Applications (SANTA), primarily for web-based distributed systems. Most conventional Internet applications have been built on three tiers - web, application, and database tiers as described in the predominant 3-tier architectural style on both Java EE and .Net platforms. However, a number of leading-edge technologies have matured, which need to be incorporated into the logical solution architecture, such as portal, process choreography, business rule engine, enterprise service bus, web services, service composition, etc. A new serviceoriented model is proposed in this paper, to extend the traditional 3-tier architectural style and position the emerging technologies/products in the right places in the architecture structure. This new architecture model comprises a stack of six interrelated layers, coupled with six vertical pillars. The six layers are Access &amp; Integration, Business Process, Composite Services, Services &amp; Components, Integration &amp; Communications, and Enterprise Resources layer. The Runtime Infrastructure pillars are composed of the Operational Management, Security, and Hosting Environment pillar, whereas the Development Process pillars consist of the Application &amp; Service Frameworks, Crosscutting Aspects &amp; Patterns, and Modeling &amp; Development Tools pillar. This holistic application architecture framework is a systematic taxonomy of major technical constituents of a distributed application in a service-oriented paradigm. Part of this comprehensive model has been extensively utilized in one form or another to design various SOA solutions in different industry sectors.

<description><![CDATA[As businesses scramble to adopt and implement Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA) it is imperative that service-oriented thinking become an integral part of the business itself. We motivate the key concepts for service-oriented business thinking through a range of examples that give a flavor of a range of businesses. In this paper we establish three key concepts - Service Agreement, Service Transaction and Service Function. These concepts are discussed in depth and are related to our ongoing work in the area of modeling business services.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=661</link>
<description><![CDATA[Database related spending is always a significant cost sink for most CIOs. One component of this spending may be related to maintenance, upgrades, physical hardware costs and other routine items that may not be avoidable. However, a large chunk of the spending may be due to inefficiencies in the data storage mechanism, redundancies in the storage of critical data elements, replication of data access logic and proliferation in the specific data storage technology used. Some of these issues may be addressed by a comprehensive data architecture strategy that attempts to tackle these inconsistencies and redundancies. In this paper, we present architecture for shared data services that may be implemented at an enterprise level to tackle issues associated with data scatter, redundancy and replication. We discuss in detail the various components of such architecture and their applicability towards specific problem areas.

<description><![CDATA[Enterprises are witnessing increased thrust on collaboration and integration of existing applications to provide value-added services across the entire supply chain. Traditionally, enterprise applications are built as point solutions with context-specific built-in assumptions hard-coded in their implementation. Enterprise Application Integration discipline deals with the mechanism for integrating such isolated applications into a consistent whole. By modeling an enterprise application as a 3-tuple comprising of its data, service and process models, EAI problem can be visualized as view-integration problem over data, service and process models. This paper presents a pragmatic approach to analyze the process model of an existing application with respect the process model of desired application to identify and mitigate the conflicts in the built-in assumptions of two process models. A formal technique to analyze the process model at various levels of granularities and a set of operators to mitigate the conflicts are proposed. The proposed approach maximizes the reusability in the context of EAI.

<description><![CDATA[The quality of data contained in the enterprise information systems has significant impact, both from the internal business decision-making perspective and the external regulatory and shareholder obligations. This paper addresses data quality assessment in business processes by proposing a modeling framework to quantify the data quality in an information processing system. We present a business process modeling framework for data quality analysis and develop the mathematical formulation for error propagation. This is overlaid with a business controls framework where the placement and effectiveness of the controls alter the propagation of errors. This framework enables the estimation and management of data quality when faced with changes in various aspects of the business process. It also allows the formulation of optimization problems that trade off the cost of business controls with the level or cost of the resultant data quality. We illustrate the modeling framework and analyses with a revenue management process.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=666</link>
<description><![CDATA[Today grid infrastructures are increasingly required to handle complex service requests requiring configuration and deployment of customized solutions. Existing tools and technologies are labor intensive and result in inefficient and wasteful use of both human and IT resources. In this paper, we describe Harmony II - an architecture for delivering customized solutions using an approach that is policy driven and is amenable to a high degree of automation.Our approach is modular, which facilitates customization using building blocks of IT resources. Lower level raw IT resources are virtualized allowing flexible and policy-based resource sharing. Flexible resource sharing reduces wasteful use of expensive IT resources and allows business goals to dictate how the resources are to be used. Cost savings in IT management are achieved not only by the automation in service delivery, but also by the novel use of building blocks and solution templates.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=667</link>
<description><![CDATA[B2B and long running B2C process is a complex business process that contains a set of services, state and transaction management, and involves notification of various events occurring during the execution of a process. Business processes are driven by events and each process should be capable to handle the dynamic nature of enterprise and business partners like change in the strategies, policies and exception handling. Execution of a business process at regional or national scale involves diversity in products, terminology and processes involved to carry out a complete business activity. Complete execution of a process requires dynamic composition of distributed services based on events. Heterogeneity, dynamic nature and lack of knowledge among business partners demand a scalable architecture, which can provide seamless interoperable integration of distributed heterogeneous services and automation of business processes with the management of state and transaction, notification of various events, and execution and monitoring of a process. In this paper, we have proposed Semantic based Service-Oriented Grid Architecture to demonstrate how semantics can be employed in SOA to deliver common vocabulary, knowledge, and automation of a business process and how grid middleware can be used to provide state, transaction, notification, scalability, and execution and monitoring of business processes.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=668</link>
<description><![CDATA[Web service composition is a mechanism for creating new services (with new functionalities) from the existing services. A business model defines the different parties involved in service provisioning and their relationships. Current Web service business models do not handle Web service composition explicitly, so we propose a novel business model to alleviate this deficiency. In this proposal, we introduce one new business role and two specialized business roles. We also propose four new relations for interaction between the business roles. We provide a concrete means for implementing two of the proposed interactions by extending the subscription API of UDDI version 3 with two new methods.

<description><![CDATA[Geospatial data is playing an increasingly important role in many areas. But there are still many problems associated with the effective use of geospatial data. One is that geospatial data is usually large in volume and is archived at geographically distributed data centers. Another is that the low-level geospatial data contains raw data instead of information that can be directly applied by users. In this paper, we discuss solutions to some of the problems based on the Grid and SOA technologies. Specifically, we propose an architecture that can effectively manage large volumes of distributed geospatial data, the concept of virtual geospatial data products, and a mechanism that supports on-demand productions of customized geospatial data products. A prototypical system based on the architecture and concept has been implemented and demonstrated.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=673</link>
<description><![CDATA[Today’s business processes are not static, they need to be adapted frequently to reflect changing business requirements. Several business process languages such as WS-BPEL have emerged for specifying business processes based on Web service technologies. Activities in such business processes are typically implemented asWeb services by using modern programming languages. These services encapsulate the business logic in terms of application-specific code. This approach lacks flexibility in terms of capturing and executing the business rules that define how certain activities work and how decisions are made. Changing "hard-coded" business rules leads to changes in the service implementations and it cannot be done efficiently without redeploying the service which may affect running business processes. Therefore, we propose VIDRE a distributed service-oriented business rule engine, which enables business processes or enterprise applications to access business rules as easily as a database by exposing them as Web services. Furthermore, VIDRE enables the definition of distributed business rules, a novel feature allowing a distributed execution of rules.  <a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2006/2670/00/2670toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2006.22">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Service oriented applications integrate heterogenous web services, which are deployed and maintained by different providers, and can evolve dynamically and autonomously. Autonomous changes of web services manifest only at run time, and may lead to unexpected failures.

This paper proposes an approach to designing selfadaptive applications, which can react to changes in the implementation of services, thus avoiding unexpected failures. The architecture proposed in this paper automatically detects possible integration mismatches, and dynamically executes suitable adaptation strategies.

The paper presents an application, the Personal Mobility Manager, which integrates heterogeneous web services, identifies failures that derive from dynamic changes in the integrated services, and illustrates the self-adaptive design solution which can prevent run time failures.

<description><![CDATA[The MIDAS system that we have developed is an automated supply chain management system based on the Service Oriented Architecture and Web Services. MIDAS provides a loosely-coupled distributed environment that allows customers, manufacturers, and suppliers to cooperate over the Internet and World Wide Web. It aims to reduce inventory carrying costs and logistics administration costs, yielding a more efficient supply chain, by supporting just-in-time manufacturing. It eliminates, or substantially reduces, human intervention on both the customer/manufacturer side and the manufacturer/supplier side. It allows a manufacturer to select, dynamically from the MIDAS Registry, suppliers of components, based on the price, availability, and delivery time of those components. A manufacturer can use one of several strategies to aggregate customers’ orders before it processes them and to accumulate suppliers’ quotes before it decides on a particular supplier. The use of a Service Oriented Architecture, such as MIDAS, can substantially improve the efficiency of a supply chain.  <a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2006/2670/00/2670toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2006.103">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[This paper introduces SOAR, a service-oriented architecture for the real-estate industry that embeds trust and security, allows for formal correctness proofs of service interactions, and systematically addresses human interaction capabilities through web-based user access to services. We demonstrate the features of SOAR through a DealMaker service that helps buyers and sellers semi-automate the various steps in a real-estate transaction. This service is a composed service, with message-based interactions specified in SSDL, the SOAP service description language. The implemented embedded trust and security solution deals with the usual privacy and authorization issues, but also establishes trust in ownership and other claims of participants. We also demonstrate how formal techniques can proof correctness of the service interaction protocol specified in SSDL. From an implementation perspective, a main new contribution is a protocol engine for SSDL. A proof-of-concept demonstration is accessible for try-out [1].

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=676</link>
<description><![CDATA[The Participatory Design Studio (PDS)1 provides users across mutiple sites the ability to effectively participate in a common design session. Users are provided a variety of shared resources, including the underlying high-speed network, cameras, displays, sound equipment, large data files, and software applications for communicating and for visualizing the artifact being designed. This paper explores the design and implementation of PDS, and describes how it leverages the benefits of a Service-oriented Architecture (SoA) to provide a highly adaptable, modular, and loosely coupled solution. PDS integrates systems that are hosted on a wide variety of platforms with different management and network domains. This integration goes beyond piping application data from one system to another. Web Services provide a cost-effective solution for integrating these systems into a comprehensive SoA.

<description><![CDATA[In this paper, we would like to address the consistency problem for web content presentation through explicit ownership schemes. Our previous study [1] showed that for most content service networks, consistency problem arises because of the mis-matching of objects’ attributes and pervasive contents. Our solution covers both protocols and supports for most of the necessary functions such as validation, delegation, presentation, etc. that need to be done in the network. <a href=http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2006/2670/00/2670toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2006.114>buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=887</link>
<description><![CDATA[Global IT Services and Consulting organizations like Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) have been investing considerable resource into the emerging discipline of Services Computing. The address focuses on the business drivers for Services Computing across multiple industries across the world and why this could be the ‘silver bullet’ for many of our challenges.

The address uses the TCS framework for Services Computing as a backdrop – across services strategy, services implementation and most importantly services governance. This is a progressive approach towards bridging the gap between ‘what IT delivers’ and ‘what the business wants’ through a well defined ‘value measurement framework.’ This framework links organizational readiness, solution maturity, and delivery assurance. Finally, the importance of aligning the competencies and roles across different parts of the organization and its stakeholders is examined.

<description><![CDATA[On-demand computing has transformed enterprise software, lowering risk and cost while increasing user adoption and customer success. To be successful, an application must be designed for on-demand from the ground-up, including core architectural elements such as multi-tenancy, availability, performance, security, metadata-driven customization, integration via web services, etc. As with any new paradigm, initial applications must design and implement all these core attributes, but ultimately platforms emerge that encapsulate core computing services, allowing application developers to focus on innovation and value, and not on reinventing the wheel. With AppExchange, salesforce.com has delivered the first ondemand platform, allowing developers to easily develop and deliver the next generation of on-demand applications. In this talk, Steve Fisher discusses the technical architecture of the AppExchange platform.

<description><![CDATA[The turbulent modern business environments require firms to be more flexible and agile. This requires ability to quickly integrate and automate intra and inter-organizational business processes. An agile IT architecture is key to achieving success in this environment. Service oriented architecture and Web services provide means for achieving the business agility; however, significant impediments to wide scale adoption and use of these technologies remain. We will focus on significant challenges in the areas of service identification and design, cataloging and searching for appropriate services, domain specific standardization of service interfaces, matching service functionality with requirements, and service selection based on non functional characteristics.

We describe an integrated framework based on standard modeling, design and code generation tools to support development of highly agile application systems. This framework is a result of multi year research effort aimed at developing methodologies and tools for defining business components and Web Services, develop schemes for describing components and services in business terms to allow efficient search of appropriate component/services and an environment for assembling application from reusable components and web services. Specific approaches used to address some of the challenges described above will be discussed.

<description><![CDATA[We propose an approach that aims to provide services that are able to adapt at run-time to the quality of services (QoSs) required and expected by the users in the context of an adaptive resource management system. When requiring a service, users may specify additional information which is of two types: QoSs (i.e., the print resolution or the transmission bandwidth) and properties (i.e., the location of the resource that provides the service or the provider of the service). In the adaptivity process, both types of information are mapped on the QoSs and properties of the underlying system’s resources, which are explicitly represented through architectural reflection. As a consequence, resources try to adapt their QoSs to those required by the current service. <a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2006/2670/00/2670toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2006.66">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>
