<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=514</link>
<description><![CDATA[The emergence of Web services and Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) makes application development easy. However, since the computing environments on which applications are running are becoming complex, it is harder for users to set up security properly. Considering such complex security environments, this paper describes a tooling framework to generate Web services security configurations using Model Driven Architecture (MDA). According to the MDA concept, users simply add security intentions to an application model, and then detailed security configurations are generated, employing transformations over UML constructs and a security environment model. In order to demonstrate that the framework is practically useful, we also illustrate how to generate configuration files for a commercial product.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.66">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=515</link>
<description><![CDATA[Recent accounting scandals involving firms such as such as Enron, Worldcom, Tyco etc. have resulted in the emergence of stringent regulations aimed at safeguarding the interest of enterprise stakeholders. Important regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX), the US PATRIOT act in US and the International Accounting Standards (IAS) regulation in Europe have diverse and far reaching effects. Organizations are mandated to comply with these regulations by producing certain documents and reports during the audit. This calls for appropriate extensible document lifecycle management solutions involving integration and reconciliation of stored data from heterogeneous sources with quick detailing. This is because these regulations demand easy accessibility of data. While point solutions to document life cycle management exist, they are not cost effective. The paradigm of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) which emphasizes software development based on well abstracted services has presented application development and adaptation a new dimension. SOA will enable flexible deployment of shared reusable compliance services thereby yielding malleable and cost effective compliance solutions. In this paper, we provide a logical SOA based approach for achieving compliance in enterprises and illustrate this approach for a typical compliance need.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.77">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=516</link>
<description><![CDATA[In peer-to-peer (P2P) environments, a peer needs to interact with unknown peers for the services provided. This requires the trust evaluation prior to and posterior to interactions. This paper presents Trust2: a novel and dynamic peer trust evaluation model, which aims to measure the credibility of peers’ recommendations, and thus to filter noise in responses and obtain more accurate and objective trust values. In our model, prior to any interaction, the trust value results from the evaluations given by other peers. Posterior to interactions, the trust values results from both other peers’ evaluations and the requesting peer’s experience. In the aggregation of trust evaluations, the weight to the requesting peer becomes higher and higher. Meanwhile, during this process, the credibility of each responding peer’s recommendation can be measured round by round. This leads to the filtering of low credibility peers and the improvement of trust evaluations.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.104">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=517</link>
<description><![CDATA[The Gridcast project is pioneering the use of grid and web technologies to prototype the next generation of broadcast media infrastructure. The project has a physical network infrastructure that connects BBC Northern Ireland, BBC R&amp;D in London, the Belfast e-Science Centre and the emerging UK grid infrastructure. This physical network infrastructure is being used to test grid and web services that manage a television broadcast infrastructure; that is, an infrastructure that manages a collection of broadcast schedules to be transmitted to viewers and that contains a mix of live and recorded video. Broadcasting is a highly demanding industry with high levels of reactivity and robustness required in its infrastructure it is a significant test of current grid and web technologies. The project has implemented schedule-based transport of recorded video between broadcast locations that assumes a highly reactive broadcasting environment, the remote, secure use of technical resources and the automation of broadcast and production workflows. <a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.57">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=518</link>
<description><![CDATA[GeneGrid is a collaborative industrial grid computing R&amp;D project initiated by the Belfast e-Science Centre (BeSC) under the UK e-Science programme and supported by the UK Department of Trade &amp; Industry (DTI). GeneGrid includes commercial partners who provide real business engagement. The project aims to provide a platform for scientists to access their collective resources, skills, experiences and results in a secure, reliable and scalable manner through the creation of a "Virtual Bioinformatics Laboratory". GeneGrid provides seamless integration of a myriad of heterogeneous applications and datasets that span multiple administrative domains and locations across the globe, and presents these to the scientist through a simple user friendly interface. This paper will present each of the five main GeneGrid components, and discuss how these components are integrated to form an advanced Service Oriented Architecture for automatic and dynamic in silico experiment execution. A commercial use case as provided by our industrial partners will also be discussed.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.55">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=519</link>
<description><![CDATA[Grid computing that has developed with the aim of high-end computing has extended to commercial areas as the enabler of cost and risk minimization for IT resources. To actualize larger benefit from Grid by widening Grid adoption, the formation of trust relationship among participants is one of the most important components that should be concerned. While trust mechanisms among distributed nodes have been studied, the related works are rather theoretical and conceptual than applicable to practical commercial Grid. Based on this observation, we classify trust depending on distinctive requirements in practical Grid utilization, and improve the evaluation process of trust by suggesting integrated measuring methods. We also introduce the ways for practical use of evaluated trust by guaranteeing individuals’ manageability. Finally, we describe the process for eliciting system constituents’ trust requirements and validating suggested architecture, which will be conducted in the next phase of this research.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.103">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=520</link>
<description><![CDATA[Grid computing has been touted as an emerging revolution that will transform the enterprise information technology landscape by enabling organizations to share access to computing systems and data across organizational boundaries. The promised benefits include increased utilization of otherwise idle computing systems, and sharing data between organizations in a seamless but secure fashion. If these promises are fulfilled, grids can enable business partners to create virtual organizations with unique competitive advantages that will be difficult to imitate. However, there are a number of technical and business challenges that must be overcome before the benefits of grid computing can be realized. In particular, this paper will analyze how contractual issues and government regulations can impact grid computing projects.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.41">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=521</link>
<description><![CDATA[A goal driven intention extraction approach is proposed to automate the process of extracting user intention from the original Web service request terms. We introduce a method for analyzing the request terms to fit user intension, so that the service provided will be more suitable for the user. The input terms will be parsed into different word sense sets. With the lexical dictionary and domain ontology, possible senses of the terms will be identified. A goal structure is constructed to help the identification of goal models which represent the user intention. By combining the information of request terms and goal structures, one or more goal models will be identified. A goal selector will select a candidate goal model from generated goal models to represent the user intention. A service request agent is designed to generate and execute plans to satisfy the goals.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.99">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=522</link>
<description><![CDATA[In this paper, we present a scalable authorization service, based on the concept of fine-grained access control (FGAC), for large-scale Grid infrastructures that span multiple independent domains. FGAC enables participating resource owners to specify fine-grained policies concerning which user can access can their resources under which mode. We argue that such an authorization service must be integrated with the resource broker service to avoid scheduling requests onto resources which do not authorize the user request. For this reason, we develop a novel resource broker service that integrates access control with resource scheduling. In our system, both resource owners and users define their resource access and usage policies. The resource broker schedules a user request only within the set of resources whose policies match the user credentials (and vice-versa). Since this process of evaluating authorization policies of resources and user, in addition to checking the resource requirement, can be a potential bottleneck for a large scale Grid, we also analyze the problem of efficient evaluation of FGAC policies. In this context, we present a novel method for policy organization and compare its performance with other strategies. Preliminary results show that the proposed method can significantly enhance performance.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.49">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<item><title><![CDATA[Knowledge as a Service and Knowledge Breaching]]></title>
<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=523</link>
<description><![CDATA[In this paper, we introduce and explore a new computing paradigm we call knowledge as a service, in which a knowledge service provider, via its knowledge server, answers queries presented by some knowledge consumers. The knowledge server’s answers are based on knowledge models that may be expensive or impossible to obtain for the knowledge consumers.While this new paradigm of computing is promising, we must establish a solid foundation to ensure its utility. We focus on the security aspect of the paradigm, and particularly on the problem we call knowledge breaching attack, which may allow an adversary to recover the knowledge underlying a knowledge service. Without being able to adequately handling such an attack, the knowledge service providers would never have any economic incentives to develop such a paradigm. Unfortunately, this paper theoretically shows that any interesting knowledge is subject to the knowledge breaching attack, and empirically shows that some knowledge models could be breached after a very small number of queries (e.g., 0.2- 1% portion of the domain). Thus we need to investigate technical means that can alleviate such powerful attacks (at least for most practical knowledge models).

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=525</link>
<description><![CDATA[The paradigm of automated e-service composition through the integration of existing services promises a fast and efficient development of new services in cooperative business environments. Although the "why" part of this paradigm is well understood, many key pieces are missing to utilize the available opportunities. Recently "e-service communities" where service providers with similar interests can register their services are proposed towards realizing this goal. In these communities, requests for services posed by users can be processed by delegating them to already registered services, and orchestrating their executions. We use the service framework of the "Roman" model and further extend it to integrate activity processing costs into the "ad hoc" delegation computation. We investigate the problem of efficient processing of service requests in service communities and develop polynomial time ad hoc delegation techniques guaranteeing optimality.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.69">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=526</link>
<description><![CDATA[The increasing ubiquity of wireless mobile devices is promoting unprecedented levels of electronic collaboration among devices interoperating to achieve a common goal. Issues related to host interoperability are addressed partially by the service-oriented computing paradigm. However, certain technical concerns relating to reliable interactions among hosts in ad hoc networks have not yet received much attention. We introduce follow-me sessions, where interactions occur between a client and a service, rather than a specific provider or server. We allow the client to switch service providers, if needed. We exploit strategies involving the use of contextual information, strong process migration, context-sensitive binding, and locationagnostic communication protocols. We show how follow-me sessions mitigate issues related to proxy-based service-oriented architectures in ad hoc networks.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.40">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=527</link>
<description><![CDATA[The evolution of wireless network technology has led to an increasing number of applications for mobile use. In addition, the paradigm of service-oriented architectures allows a composition of applications based on distributed web services. By using registries it becomes possible to choose the appropriate services at runtime. It needs to be considered that services for mobile use may have different scopes. For instance, routing or weather services may be dedicated to a specific region so that they may be useless if a user’s area of interest does not match the service’s scope. It is hence necessary to identify and use those services with a scope that corresponds to the relevant context such as a user’s location. Moreover, if the context changes, it is desirable to automatically switch between different equivalent service instances to provide a user with a continuous connection to a desired service. We denote this mechanism as service roaming. This paper presents the major concepts needed for service roaming as well as a roaming model based on n-dimensional context spaces.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.83">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[This work proposes a novel model where multimedia contents with their related services (business processes and functions) are packaged together as mobile agents. This is intended to enable content providers both to encapsulate their contents and to provide value-added services, for ?exible content editing, delivery, and presentation. In addition, agents encapsulating contents/services can contain other agents in themselves (synthesis of agents). A mobile agent compound integrating multiple contents/services can be thus dynamically formed, in which multiple agents work cooperatively and migrate together as a unit. This paper also describes our proposedMAFEH/WS framework for the model. Agents in the model can be developed by incorporating simple parameter settings for synthesis control into business process descriptions in BPEL4WS.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.65">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The paper reports on research to design and implement a service-based, secure collaborative workflow system for Distributed Aircraft Maintenance Environment (DAME). This has been developed by the Universities of York, Sheffield, Oxford and Leeds, and industrial partners, Rolls-Royce and Data Systems and Solutions (DS&amp;S). DAME is a prototype system to support aircraft engine maintenance and predictive services. It is an example of a virtual organisation with grid-based services running at the four universities sites. To meet the industrial requirements strong security is implemented to protect commercially sensitive services and data. Application services have been coordinated using the DAME workflow management system to automate business processes and control collaborative access. A dynamic workflow-team policy is used to authorise user access to workflow instances and corresponding service instances. The paper includes aspects of an initial evaluation with the industrial participants and illustrates the feasibility of using DAME in an industrial environment.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.84">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=530</link>
<description><![CDATA[Service-Oriented Architectures (SOAs) are fundamentally changing the way in which we conceptualize and design business applications. An SOA-based application typically composes various distributed functions, including some possibly provided by external parties such as independent businesses. The key advantage of SOAs is the resulting dynamism, since the composed parts can be readily swapped out in favor of others of like functionality. SOA environments thus reflect the dynamism of human socioeconomic environments where businesses interact, collaborate, and expose services to each other in order to jointly create value. This paper presents a multiagent model for Web services and catalogs architectural styles that are key for SOA applications. It conceptually evaluates the styles by showing the kinds of service usages and the resulting dynamic interactions that they enable.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.101">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=531</link>
<description><![CDATA[Service oriented computing has gained a considerable momentum as a new paradigm for building enterprise information systems. Notable efforts have been made recently from both researchers and industrials to support the construction of service-based applications, nevertheless several issues still need to be tackled including service de?nition and adaptation, and services orchestration. This work proposes PYROS, an environment for building and orchestrating open services. An open service is represented by a workflow that coordinates calls to service provider methods. Thereby component activities and the way they are synchronized are rendered visible. In order to finely orchestrate services, they are associated with entry points. An entry point acts as a gateway for inserting and getting information about the progress of service execution. The paper details the approach adopted by PYROS for building and orchestrating services, and presents associated architectural choices. Furthermore, it reports an experimentation that we conducted for implementing an eTrader application using PYROS.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.74">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=532</link>
<description><![CDATA[Application integrations employ interacting software components and services. Components - distributed, black-box, processing elements - may have distinct communication styles. Services can be used to augment the interaction of components to deliver on a common task. Unfortunately, there exist scenarios where components and services do not interact congenially. At issue is the service design that, even with standards in place, may ignore important aspects of component communication expectations. Thus, a complete integration is not achieved without implementing ad hoc glue code external to the design strategy. Introducing glue code, without design traceability, limits control, dynamism, and upgrades to components and services. We specify templates for framing glue code as integration completion functions (ICFs). Uniform designs are given using multiple modeling techniques to foster compilation of an ICF repository, where their instantiation can be plug-ins to application integrations.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.98">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Two practical paradigms are presented, which facilitate domain concepts to be directly used to model business operations: the first paradigm is based on the business artifacts and their life cycle; the second paradigm is based on the business tasks and their sequencing. Transformation is an effective way to bridge the gap between business level analysis and IT solutions. We present algorithms that transform business process models based on these two paradigms into IT solutions of web service platform. The specific problems we addressed in this transformation are: 1) how to generate the implementation code of an optimal size; 2) how to preserve the natural structure of business process models in the generated code.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.102">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=534</link>
<description><![CDATA[With the rapid deployment of e-services, many workflow-like e-business process definition languages come into existence. At the same time, Ontology Web Language for Services (OWL-S) aims to build an ontology language to support the integration of various specifications. There has been some work on mapping WSDL (Web Services Description Language) to OWL-S to build a connection between the Web service and service profile. However, in the sense of activity relationships, there has been no effort so far trying to build the OWL-S service model from a workflow process model. Therefore, we design and develop an innovative mapping tool to translate BPEL4WS (Business Process Execution Language for Web Services) to OWL-S. Through this mapping, semantics in the traditional business process specifications can be enriched significantly to enable more flexible and automatic e-service functions by using existing OWL-S tools such as composition and discovery, especially the execution of workflow-based services.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.54">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=535</link>
<description><![CDATA[The web service is a main working pattern and a significant application model for next generation Internet application. The service-oriented architecture is a very promising architecture for practical implementation of the next generation geographical information systems. This paper investigated the service-oriented architecture for constructing a distributed and web service enabled geographical information platform. The GIS platform architecture is designed as a multi-layer architecture that integrates the web service, Servlet/JSP functions and GIS APIs based on the framework of J2EE infrastructure. The web service framework was applied to the GIS system design and implementation. GIS web services were designed to provide the hosted spatial data and GIS functionality to integrate the customized GIS applications to perform basic geo-processing tasks, such as address matching, map image display, and routing, without maintaining GIS tools or the associated geographical data. The system architecture, functions, system integrations, and some key technical problems were investigated. It has an important application prospect in the GIS tools development and application.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.27">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Managing operational and semantic interdependencies among software services is a relativley unexplored topic, despite its relevance to automating service deployments and to increased availability. In this paper we decsribe a framework fro structured and programmatic dependency management among services written in the Java programming language. The framewrok's interface allows for defining an acrylic graph of dependencies. The graph's structure reflects the startup sequence of managed services. Upon services failure or international termination, the dependencies are consulted to determine which services may be affected. If the dependencies so dictate, a service that has gone off-line will automatically be restarted. The requisite changes, e.g., restarting, will be propagated along the graph's edge to ensure that the required dependencies are satisfied for each services. Wer demonstrate the usefulness of this framework thorugh real-life case studies.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.18">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=537</link>
<description><![CDATA[Enterprise modeling using data dependencies is common in monitoring and business performance management systems. The modern enterprise is a dynamic creature, constantly adapting itself to the changing environment. This adaptation may result in changes in enterprise components and data dependencies between them. An enterprise model must be able to express this dynamism, and business performance management services must be able to react accordingly. In this paper, we briefly introduce ADI (Active Dependency Integration Technology), a language for modeling data dependencies between entities. We discuss developments related to support in modeling dynamic environments, where elements may be added or deleted. Dynamism-related developments include the support of automatic dependency instantiation from an abstract dependency. The abstract dependency expresses a general pattern in the ontology, functioning as a template for dependency instances. Another aspect of dynamism is support for changes in existing dependencies rather than only creating new dependencies; for example, adding a new entity to a dependency. Changes in topology do not imply system redeployment. ADI also supports the influence of dynamism on data items and subsequent propagation of this influence through the model.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.67">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[In this paper we discuss a case study for the UK Police IT Organisation (PITO) on using a model-based approach to verifying web service composition interactions for a coordinated service-oriented architecture. The move towards implementing web service compositions by multiple interested parties as a form of distributed system architecture promotes the ability to support 1) early verification of service implementations against design specifications and 2) that compositions are built with compatible interfaces for differing scenarios in such a collaborative environment. The approach uses finite state machine representations of web service orchestrations and distributed process interactions. The described approach is supported by an integrated tool environment for for providing verification and validation results from checking designated properties of service models.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.105">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=539</link>
<description><![CDATA[This paper presents Abacus, a service-oriented programming language designed for the development of grid applications. Abacus considers that all the grid resources constitute a unified logical address space, where each memory cell holds a resource in the form of a service, and a grid application solves a problem by operating on these memory cells. Abacus allows programmers to concentrate on the logic of their applications, such as service implementation logic, service invocation logic, and glue logic. Low-level details such as resource distribution, resource binding, and service deployment are supported by the compiler and the runtime system. With such virtualization techniques, Abacus helps to enhance the productivity of programmers in developing grid applications.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.22">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Considering the facts that existing benchmarks to measure the performance of Web service frameworks simulate only theoretical scenarios such as streaming homogeneous data structures and the computer industry has an established culture of developing performance benchmarks imitating real world scenarios, an effort was made to come up with a benchmark that closely represent the real world business services. The paper concludes that the benchmark represents an unbiased subset of actual scenarios because the ranking and performance patterns of the leading Web services frameworks used in the experiment are consistent with Industry wide experiences. Additionally the paper introduces a performance model to analyze Web service frameworks and identifies complexity of the SOAP messages and size of the payloads they carry as two major factors that affect the RTT of the SOAP messages and reveals that a framework that is good at handling complex SOAP messages may not deal with messages that carry larger payloads equally well.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.9">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=541</link>
<description><![CDATA[The Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) provides a methodology for designing software systems by integrating loosely coupled services. Compared to traditional distributed object-oriented architectures, SOA is more suitable to integrate heterogeneous systems, and more adaptable in a changing environment. This paper presents the design and implementation of a SOA framework for financial transaction applications. The framework provides an easy and uniform way for service composition in a controlled environment, and leverages Web service standards with efficient communication mechanisms and durable and/or transactional message queues. Speci?cally, the work addresses the following issues: 1) the incorporation of existing systems and protocols that are not Web-service compatible. This paper focuses on business processes of equities transactions using the FIX [6] protocol. 2) the congfiguration and deployment of services and service endpoints in a flexible and dynamic manner. 3) the capability of specifying business processes as Web service compositions and a distributed runtime environment that supports it. 4) the scalability, resiliency and transactional aspects as required in critical business applications. The experience of applying the framework in building a high performance equities transaction system is presented.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.94">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[An important aspect of service-centric systems (i.e. systems composed of services) is the ability to support service discovery at run-time in order to cope with unavailable or malfunctioning services. In this paper we present a framework that supports run-time service discovery. The central characteristics of this framework is the combination of components for monitoring the compliance of service-centric systems with requirements at run-time and components for discovering servies at run-time. The framework uses the former components to generate queries for discovering services that could subtitute for malfunctioning services. It also uses queries derived from the process specification for service discovery. These queries incorporate both structural and behavioral aspects fo the required services.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.17">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=543</link>
<description><![CDATA[Marketing of agricultural produce is a complex task involving various stack-holders, products and business scenarios. In a developing country like India, this activity is influenced by local, socio-economic and cultural characteristics. Evaluating the business processes at regional or national scale therefore, reveals diversity in products, terminology, and process to carry out a complete business activity. While other complex but well-defined business processes are experiencing benefits of services driven e-business; ‘marketing of agricultural produce’ has remained untouched by this revolution. Government of India is now planning to implement agricultural marketing reforms to streamline the process in all markets throughout the nation. Yet unavailability of proper underlying IT infrastructure will continue to inhibit the implementation and penetration of such technological advancements amongst the users. In absence of such capability, the informal transactions provide meager benefits to a farmer who looses a better price in other potential market, or a wholesaler, who might have got the desired quality product at a lower cost directly from the farm. There is a need to develop affordable and reliable solution that links all the actors involved in the system and provide an environment for a competitive business. This research paper demonstrates Web Services based business process management system, developed to aid marketing of agricultural produce. For achieving relevance to real-life practice, we carefully follow the business process suggested in model act that is planned for implementation in all the Agricultural Produce Marketing Committees (APMC) throughout India. Our proposal exposes various business functionalities explained in the act, in the form of Web Services that can also utilize the existing IT infrastructure of the APMCs.

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=545</link>
<description><![CDATA[Web service discovery is a key problem as the number of services is expected to increase dramatically. Service discovery at the present time is based primarily on keywords, or interfaces of web services through the use of ontology. We argue that "behavior signatures" as operational level description should play an important role in the service discovery process. In this paper, we propose a new behavior model for web services using automata and logic formalisms. Roughly, the model associates messages with activities and adopts the IOPR model in OWL-S to describe activities. A new query language is developed to express temporal and semantic properties on service behaviors. Query evaluation algorithms are developed; in particular, an optimization approach using RE-tree and heuristics is shown to improve the performance. Speci?cally, experimental results show that the use of RE-tree reduces query evaluation time by an order of magnitude and with heuristics it enhances the performance by two orders of magnitude. This is clearly an encouraging starting point.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.107">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=546</link>
<description><![CDATA[With the increasing growth in popularity of Web services, matchmaking of relevant Web services becomes a significant challenge. Commonly, Web service is described by WSDL and published on UDDI registers. UDDI provides limited search facilities allowing only a keyword-based search of businesses, services, and the so called tModels based on names and identifiers. This category-based keyword-browsing method is clearly insufficient. Semantic Web service uses DAML-S instead of WSDL to represent capabilities of Web services. This improvement enables software agents or search engines to automatically find appropriate Web services via ontologies and reasoning algorithm enriched methods. However, the high cost of formally defining to the heavy and complicated services makes this improvement widespread adoption unlikely. To cope with these limitations, we have developed a suite of methods which assesses the similarity of Web services to achieve matchmaking. In particular, we present a conceptual model which classifies properties of Web services into four categories. For each category, a similarity assessment method has been given. In Web service matchmaking process, these similarity assessment methods can be used together or individually. Experiments highlight complementary contributions that our work makes to facilitate web service matchmaking.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.93">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[This paper provides a generalized approach for building a QoS Based Registry for Service Oriented Architecture. This framework enhances the current Universal Description, Discovery and Integration (UDDI) standard in order to achieve better search efficiency and improved quality of search based on user specified QoS parameters. The proposed model does not require any changes or modification to the current UDDI standard but provides a middleware repository that is used to store a valid subset of the UDDI data with QoS specifications. The proposed framework is expandable to include additional quality of service parameters depending on the application. The implementation of this framework illustrates the effectiveness of our proposed QoS based registry.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.12">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[In this paper, we introduce a service-oriented design method by integrating the concept of aspects, which is called Service-Oriented Design with Aspects (SODA) in order to utilize services and aspects as fundamental and abstract elements in the design phase of software lifecycle. The service model is represented in the structural and behavior views using UML with its extension mechanism and Petri net respectively. Aspects are used to capture service-specific concerns required for delivering high-quality and user-friendly services. By weaving services and aspects, we can generate various versions of a service system as well as their Petri net based service semantics that also facilitates the verification of service design results. We exemplify a service design result of SODA by applying it to a supply-chain management application.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.116">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[This paper provides a multi-agent negotiation based service composition approach to deal with end user on-demand service requirements. We introduce a system framework for service composition. In this framework, a workflow defines a generic and serviceindependent process model within which each service agent is able to select appropriate task node that fits for the end user requirement in run time. Specifically, agents will negotiate with one other to guarantee the satisfaction of the service consumers’ requirements. This paper introduces a methodology of how to model a service composition as a constraint satisfaction problem and solve the problem by a multi-agent negotiation algorithm.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.13">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The capability to easily find useful services (software applications, software components, scientific computations) becomes increasingly critical in several fields. Current approaches for components retrieval are mostly limited to the matching of their inputs/outputs. To go beyond the limits of these approaches, a substantial effort has been done by different works on semantic web and ontologies by exploiting more knowledge on the semantics of the components. However, this effort still remains insufficient and does not ful?ll user needs as many functional or quality aspects are hidden within the specification of components behavior. In this paper we argue that, in many situations, the component discovery process should be based on the specification of this behavior, that is the process model which describes each component. The idea behind is to develop matching techniques that operate on process models and allow delivery of partial matches and evaluation of semantic distance between these matches and the user requirements. Consequently, even if a service satisfying exactly the user requirements does not exist, the most similar ones will be retrieved and proposed for reuse by extension or modification. To do so, we reduce the problem of service behavioral matching to a graph matching problem and we adapt existing algorithms for this purpose.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.82">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=556</link>
<description><![CDATA[Currently, Grid technologies are widely used in largescale scientific applications. Grids support stateful interactions with explicit exposure of state information across the boundaries of a service. In this paper, we present a stateful Web service architecture that provides efficient sharing of a service instance between heterogeneous service requesters with monitoring of the interactions. We describe how we compose the state information based on the formalized sequence of the interactions. We also describe how the shared service instance is managed, and interacted with, through standard Web services interfaces. We analyze the performance of our approach in a large-scale scientific Grid application.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/01/24081toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.68">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=561</link>
<description><![CDATA[The main goal of our key project, CROWN Grid, is to empower in-depth integration of resources and cooperation of researchers nationwide and worldwide. In CROWN, Information Service is the kernel part which handles resource discovery and management process. Employing existing information service architectures suffers from poor scalability, long search response time, and large traffic overhead. In this paper, we propose a service club mechanism, called S-Club, for efficient service discovery. In S-Club, an overlay based on existing GIS mesh network of CROWN is built, so that GISs are organized as service clubs. Each club serves for a certain type of service while each GIS may join one or more clubs. Performance of S-Club is evaluated by comprehensive simulations. Simulation results show that S-Club scheme significantly improves search performance and outperforms existing approaches.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.48">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Today's information technologies, such as autonomic computing, offer companies new ways to do businesses. Those that fail to embrace and use such advantages in the next years are in danger to disappear or become zombie ones. In contrast, those pioneering these next-generation technology-business strategies will gain strategic advantage. This paper is about AWS-Net Traveler, which is an Autonomic Web Services Framework for performing Business Processes in an Autonomous mode. The main feature of this proposal is a decentralized architecture that heavily relies on Peer-to-Peer Web Service Brokers to coordinate, plan and perform Web Service choreographies.

<description><![CDATA[In the past a few years, provision of an Internet-scale multicast with the use of application-level routing components has generated a lots of interests both within the research community and in the commercial world [1], [2], [3], [4]. Overlay Multicast is a concept representing such multicast scheme. Overlay multicast offers accelerated deployment, simplified configuration, and better access control. In this paper we present an overview of the existing overlay multicast solutions and classify them according to different criteria. Also we compared the performance between topologyindependent and topology-aware end-system multicast and performance difference of topology-aware end-system multicast and proxy-based multicast.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.29">buy?  now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Information Service in the Grid provides the ability to discover and monitor resources which is fundamental for the Grid infrastructure. A framework of a tree-based Grid Information Service (TGIS) is proposed in this paper. This framework is based on GT’s MDS. MDS uses centralized GIIS to index services. Performance study shows that GIIS can not sustain large users and GRIS. Our TGIS framework uses decentralized GIIS to solve that problem. We construct each GIIS node in a tree structure which can solve system performance and scalability issue.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.11">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The ability to create virtual organisations (VOs) on demand in a dynamic, open and competitive environment is one of the challenges that underlie Grid computing and Web Services research. It is widely recognised that to form and manage a VO effectively, the ability to gauge quality of service (QoS) is important. Existing methods for managing QoS in SOC environments tend to adopt a provider-centric perspective, aiming largely at optimising and guaranteeing QoS for service delivery. In this paper we consider QoS management of VOs from a service user’s perspective, proposing techniques for supporting service users in assessment and monitoring of QoS during VO formation and operation.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.95">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

In this paper, we explore using pre and post-conditions of Web services to enable their automatic composition. Also, we present a novel technique for discovering semantic relations between pre and post-conditions of different services using their ontological descriptions. This enables determining services with complimentary functions and generating a semantic Web of services. Our technique takes semantic similarity of pre and post-conditions into account and builds on our earlier work on discovering semantic relationships between interfaces (input and output) of Web services.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.45">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Grids are often used through simplified job submission interfaces that abstract the underlying grid infrastructure as a black box. These interfaces suit well to developers of simple grid applications requiring the coordination of grid jobs, for which monitoring and error handling are done more or less manually. However, developers of advanced grid applications such as grid portals need more flexible tools to develop efficient and robust applications with advanced capabilities such as monitoring, error handling, failure recovery, resource release, etc. In this paper, we present through a typical application example a XML-based language designed to describe applications orchestrating grid jobs. We also present the execution environment supporting the proposed language and we show how even simple grid applications can be expressed in this language and benefit of the advanced capabilities of the execution environment.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.21">buy?  now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The paper discusses the application of web services and utility computing for inventory optimisation in manufacturing systems. The business case is highlighted from an inventory optimisation case study conducted with a UK based Small Medium Enterprise (SME) positioned within the discrete manufacturing industry. To measure the performance of the SME, a tried and tested methodology was applied. The challenges faced by organisations in cost effectively optimising inventory are discussed, detailing the traditional approaches and solutions, and exploring the alternative utility computing model and its associated benefits. The proposed functionality of a web service solution is simulated in the case study to highlight the business benefits it could deliver. This provides the foundations for the design and architecture of the web-service solution delivered as a utility computing model. The paper also details how the solution would interact with an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system to automate the optimisation process.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.96">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The paper describes a case study conducted in collaboration with a leading provider of global transportation solutions. The organisation is a multimodal cargo solutions provider, offering worldwide transportation via land, sea, and air, as well as logistics services. The company engaged in an initiative to develop an enterprise portal aiming to leverage leading edge technologies to improve customer service, streamline internal business processes, consolidate distributed applications, and enable the organisation to continue to expand globally. Following a feasibility study, which included analysing the current system, establishing the original system requirements, identifying new and emerging requirements, and analysing suitable portal products that would meet these organisational requirements, a portal suite was purchased. The organisation was then faced with the challenge of deploying a solution and a number of portal applications that would quickly provide business benefits to the organisation, therefore giving stakeholders an early return on investment. The paper describes the design and development approach adopted during the initial phases of the portal development life cycle focusing, in particular, on the development and implementation of two service portal applications.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.25">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Nowadays, we can conduct many businesses on the Internet, called E-Business, like on the physical world. A general tool for communication on the Internet is a webpage. The question is how one can get evidence to state the event when has disputes on the Internet. Available tools such as cybernotary will generate evidence when one requests. In reality, no one realize to do so, until the dispute occurs. So, a few people keep the evidence while the business occurs. This paper proposes the Automatic E-evidence Generation System that collects information passed through the internet proactively. E-evidence is generated at a specific time that allows one who needs it for a later use to solve dispute. A trusted third party is an important mechanism to intercept web pages between a web server and browser. However, generating evidence proactively may cause information overload. Data reduction techniques are considered to reduce the huge amount of E-evidence. Data analysis is conducted to find the rate of data reduction.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.33">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Resource usage is important input for a number of IT processes including those related to: Financial Management; Capacity Planning; Service Level Management; and Configuration Management. Accounting systems in traditional UNIX / Linux environments generate a usage record at the end of each process. Administrators periodically use standard accounting system utilities to summarize resource usage using the user and application data recorded with each of these records. Recent advances in Dynamic LPAR technologies and Service Oriented Architectures have placed new requirements on the metering of resource usage. In a Dynamic LPAR environment, allocations must be measured and processed to obtain accurate information on resource usage. Transactions performed using Service Oriented Architectures deployed on heterogeneous, distributed systems introduce new challenges for metering resource usage based on transaction classes. In this paper we present the design and implementation of a J2EE-based accounting service which exposes manageability and reporting interfaces for the AIX advanced accounting system. The reporting interface can be used to generate process-based, LPAR-based and transaction-based usage reports.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.24">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=587</link>
<description><![CDATA[In today's IT service market customers urge providers to grant guarantees for quality of service (QoS) which are laid down in Service Level Agreements (SLAs). To satisfy customers and to avoid penalties, service providers have to ensure that the agreed SLAs are met. Therefore, it is necessary to be able to effectively deal with resource failures which could endanger the SLAs by affecting the provided services. The effort for recovering from failures should be selected corresponding to the expected SLA violation costs. In this paper we present a framework to automatically determine the impact of resource failures with respect to services and service level agreements. We achieve this by monitoring the service quality from inside and outside the service provider and also by incorporating information about the current and expected future service usage. The expected costs of the resource failures are assessed to select an appropriate recovery alternative. Besides this short term perspective the impact analysis can also be employed to identify critical resources and to improve the service provisioning.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.10">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=945</link>
<description><![CDATA[IBM defines autonomic computing as “an approach to build computing systems that are self-managed and operate with a minimum of human interference.” To build an autonomic system, some characteristics such as selfknowledge, self-optimization, self-healing, self-defense, among others, have to be built into it.

Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is an architectural paradigm that promotes development of software systems as sets of collaborative and loosely coupled services. It defines principals for achieving service interoperability, agility, reusability, integration and such others across heterogeneous distributed software systems.

It is widely accepted that web services are entities that provide many out-of-the-box capabilities for building Service Oriented software systems. Since the SOA approach has been proposed recently, various standards for addressing areas such as service orchestration, security, contract definition languages, policy exchange mechanisms and such others, are presently under development. One such key area that is gaining a lot of attention recently is web service manageability. This paper discusses an approach for modeling the manageability of a web service at design time and implementing that model to impart autonomic capabilities to it at run time. Of the various characteristics of autonomic systems self-knowledge, self-recovery and selfoptimization are discussed herein.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.88">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=588</link>
<description><![CDATA[The use of Web Services as an infrastructure of service sharing has made it possible to provide collaboration and interoperability in distributed computing environment. In this environment, service publishing and discovery are required as elementary functionalities for users to be able to locate the shared resources. The mechanism of service publishing and discovery with centralized architecture restricts the reliability and scalability of the distributed computing environment as the services and resources on the web are fast emerging. The peer-to-peer (P2P) systems and applications, on the other hand, employ distributed resources to perform critical functions in a decentralized manner. This paper introduces Web Services Oriented Peer-to-peer (WSOP) architecture with a combination of centralized and decentralized characteristics, and presents a framework of service publishing and discovery model based on WSOP architecture. The prototype system - WebPeer implemented based on this model demonstrates the WSOP architecture can not only help to overcome the known obstacles in common Web Services infrastructure such as single node failure, but also extend the ability of the pure P2P systems, such as more efficiently locating the resources, increasing the interoperability between different P2P systems. Key words: Peer-to-Peer, Web Services, Service Publishing, Service Discovery, Interoperability.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.111">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Peer-to-Peer (P2P) computing is a distributed computing paradigm that uses large numbers of autonomous hosts as a platform for the execution of applications. This paper focuses on P2P computing in an enterprise environment. Unlike other P2P computing scenarios more access and data about the peers, network and users is available thus enabling the deployment of more complex applications that consists of components that are hosted on different peers. Unfortunately the distribution of components in a P2P network leads to serious coordination issues. This paper has two aims. First of all it is an attempt to draw more attention to the issues surrounding the use of P2P computing in an enterprise environment. We believe that there is a growing demand for using the distributed resources of an organization in a P2P manner that allows users to keep their autonomy and control over "their" machines. Secondly, the paper presents a framework/middleware called P2PManifold designed to support the seamless execution of distributed applications in a P2P network.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.42">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

The amont of such knowledge maybe large and ever growing, so the first step of process knowledge reuse is retrieving. A business goal oriented process knoeledge retrieving method is introduced. The reuseable process knowlege is organized into Process Units. A Process Unit semantic description framework is defined. Business goal is also defined using semantic based model. User defined goal description is transformed into target process knowledge description, and used as input of a PK retrieving algorithm on the PK repository. User’ requirements on target process’s functionality, performance and compatibility with collabrative processes are concerned in the retrieving process.

As such service-oriented systems have no inherent tool to support business processes. The paper proposes an implementation of business processes in SOSS. The implementation can be improved if data stores can be integrated into SOSS and used together with the classical message passing.

<description><![CDATA[With the emergence of Grid computing and service-oriented architectures, computing is becoming increasingly less confined to traditional computing platforms. Grid computing promises the accessibility of vast computing and data resources across geographically dispersed areas. This capability is significantly enhanced by establishing support for mobile wireless devices to deliver access to high-performance computing under demanding circumstances. Access to the Grid from mobile devices can be very effective in business environments where users can access the vast computing power and data repositories on the Grid while working out on the field. This also enables and encourages collaborative working environments. A Grid demonstrator system for distributed aircraft health monitoring already developed and implemented in the UK E-Science Grid project, DAME, is introduced. In this demonstrator, CBR technology for decision support is implemented in a practical framework that enables Grid-based, proactive mobile computing.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.56">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=594</link>
<description><![CDATA[In the Grid computing environment, there are a lot of important issues, including information service, information security, resource management, routing, fault tolerance, and so on. Among the issues, the job scheduling is a major problem since it is a fundamental and crucial step in achieving the high performance. The job scheduling problem has been known as a combinatorial optimization problem. Scheduling in a Grid environment can be seen as an extension to the scheduling problem on local parallel systems.

In the research, we focus on applying the technologies of RFID and Grid computing to the architecture of EPC network. In the view of EPC network, there are a lot of applications needing computing power of Grid to solve huge quantity of coming EPC data. According to the architecture of EPC network and the environment of Grid computing, they have several places homologous characteristics with each other.

Therefore, we propose a new algorithm that modifies the traditional GA and integrates SA. Since the processes of GA and SA keep no memory, some problem’s status visited before may be visited again. In order to overcome the drawback, we design a learning scheme to remember visited statues to reduce the probability of the re-visiting improvement the performance in the search space. It can help to find the optimal or Near-optimal scheduling efficiently and avoid the resource deadlock. Furthermore, our proposed algorithm, HGASA- with learning scheme, also considers about several properties of Grid computing environment and EPC network, such as heterogeneity, dynamic adaptation and the independent relationship of jobs. <a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.59">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=595</link>
<description><![CDATA[The emerging paradigm of distributed Web services has promised seamless business integration across the Internet that shares not only computing power but also applications. One major challenge is resource allocation to each end user in an economically efficient and low latency manner. A common solution is proportional sharing where each user gets his resource in proportion to the predetermined weight. However, this does not allow users to differentiate the value of their services and to dynamically adjust the weights. A resource reservation mechanism may improve the information and service sharing but usually introduces a high latency. In this paper, we propose a progressive auction based market mechanism for resource allocation that allows user differentiation of the service value and ensures the resource acquisition latency to be limited only to the communication delay in Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) systems. We present a service sharing prototype for selecting services for further business process composition or solution creation and show experimental results on the formation of reliable user ranking in resource sharing through the progressive auction.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.73">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Business processes especially those in knowledge intensive environments often emerge rather than following predefined steps. Supporting emergent processes is one of the key issues for collaborative knowledge sharing. This paper first introduces a component-based workspace metamodel used to support emergent processes. A loose-coupled collaborative process management model WorkPath is proposed based on the workspace structure to support flexible process evolution management and coordination among processes. Key elements that construct workspace and WorkPath, such as role, action, artifact, workspace and reference relation, are described in detail. An implementation prototype and future work is also discussed at the end of the paper.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.61">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[We propose architectural properties required for supporting automatic service composition. After de?ning composable service architecture, we proceed to examine the role of trust and reputation systems in such environment. Based on the proposed infrastructure we give several options for achieving automatic service composition, under the assumption that previously de?ned requirements are architecturally supported. Finally, we discuss the impact and outlook for automatic composition.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.30">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=600</link>
<description><![CDATA[The competitiveness of the market place and the advent of on demand services computing are encouraging many organizations to improve their business efficiency and agility via business process management technologies. A lot of work has been done in process codification, tracking, and automation. However, a significant gap still remains between the way an organization’s codified processes execute and the organization’s business objectives such as maximizing profit with high-degree of customer satisfaction. This paper addresses this gap by proposing a process execution management (PEM) framework which enables continual optimization of workflow process executions based upon business value metrics such as SLA breach penalty, revenue, and customer satisfaction index. We have implemented the PEM framework based upon leading commercial products. We have also used the framework to develop two representative business performance management solutions for service quality management processes and application execution workflows. Our experimental results show that, when compared with a state-of-the-art commercial workflow product, our PEM system can reduce the loss of business value of a set of process execution requests by 67% on average.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.71">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=603</link>
<description><![CDATA[In mobile environments, packet transmission services suffer from packet losses due to e.g. inadequate received signal quality, or forced by protocols in the signaling domain of the infrastructure of a mobile communications network. To reduce the occurrence of packet losses and, hence, to improve the quality of packet transmission services, such as e.g. the Short Message Service (SMS) deployed in GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) based mobile communications networks, a quantitative analysis of the Quality of Service (QoS) in the signaling domain is mandatory. For this reason, appropriate QoS parameters are needed. In this communication, the authors propose such QoS parameters and apply them to the SMS in GSM networks. Furthermore, a system framework for QoS monitoring, alerting and reconfiguring an SMS Center is presented. It operates near real-time and, therefore, helps to maintain a high QoS level. Selected monitoring results gathered during real world network operation are presented.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.16">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=604</link>
<description><![CDATA[The emerging paradigms of service oriented architectures and utility-based computing have the potential greatly reduce the cost of data management. Data management service providers negotiate with their customers agree on a service level agreement (SLA) that guarantees performance and reliability. However, these providers have the freedom to cut costs by taking advantage of economies of scale across multiple customers.

In this paper, we examine the problem of choosing a QoS level for each table or index in a service provider’s backend databases so as to minimize the dollar cost of provisioning storage while satisfying application-level SLAs. This problem is difficult because changes in the access cost of different portions of the database can cause the database to alter its access patterns. We develop an algorithm that optimizes the choice of query execution plans and storage layout simultaneously to meet an SLA at minimum cost.

In our experiments we use a part of the TPC-H benchmark as the workload and several models of the incremental cost of placing a volume at a high quality of service. Our results show that significant cost savings are possible through selective use of high storage QoS levels.<a href="http://csdl2.computer.org/persagen/DLAbsToc.jsp?resourcePath=/dl/proceedings/scc/&amp;toc=comp/proceedings/scc/2005/2408/02/24082toc.xml&amp;DOI=10.1109/SCC.2005.79">buy now</a><div></div><div></div>]]></description>

<link>http://www.servicescomputing.tv/rss/view/readarticle_view.php?info_id=943</link>
<description><![CDATA[SOA and Web Services are the hottest topics of discussion currently with regards to enterprise architecture. The technologies are maturing from a standardization perspective and the level of understanding of various aspects of a SOA is gradually rising with an increasing number of clients thinking about service implementation and adoption. This trend has generated significant interest in IT and business circles alike, owing to the promise of bridging the gap between business strategists and IT architects. Service Oriented Architecture builds upon decades of distributed computing technologies and advocates the delivery of software applications in the form of an open interface based on strict contracts, leading to loosely coupled systems which are implementation independent. This tutorial will focus on providing an overview of service oriented architecture with emphasis on the evolution of SOA from other technologies such as object oriented programming and distributed computing. Subsequently, the tutorial will delve into exploring SOA from multiple perspectives, such as the relevance of SOA in EAI, SOA features of J2EE and .NET apart from illustrating specific recommendations on migrating to SOA based on some sample implementations.
