A Location Based Value Prediction for Quality of Web Service

The number of web services with functionality increases, the service users usually depends on web recommendation systems. Now a days the service users pay more importance on non functional properties which are also known as Quality of Service (QoS) while finding and selecting appropriate web services. Collaborative filtering approach predicts the QoS values of the web services effectively. Existing recommendation systems rarely consider the personalized influence of the users and services in determining the similarity between users and services. The proposed system is a ranking oriented hybrid approach which integrates user-based and item-based QoS predictions. Many of the non-functional properties depends on the user and the service location. The system thus employs the location information of users and services in selecting similar neighbors for the target user and service and thereby making personalized service recommendation for service users

An Intelligent QoS Identification for Untrustworthy Web Services Via Two-phase Neural Networks

QoS identification for untrustworthy Web services is critical in QoS management in the service computing since the performance of untrustworthy Web services may result in QoS downgrade. The key issue is to intelligently learn the characteristics of trustworthy Web services from different QoS levels, then to identify the untrustworthy ones according to the characteristics of QoS metrics. As one of the intelligent identification approaches, deep neural network has emerged as a powerful technique in recent years. In this paper, we propose a novel two-phase neural network model to identify the untrustworthy Web services. In the first phase, Web services are collected from the published QoS dataset. Then, we design a feedforward neural network model to build the classifier for Web services with different QoS levels. In the second phase, we employ a probabilistic neural network (PNN) model to identify the untrustworthy Web services from each classification. The experimental results show the proposed approach has 90.5% identification ratio far higher than other competing approaches.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figure

Collaborative Based Filtering Approach for Web Service Recommendations using GEO-Locations

Service computing is one of Internet-based computing, whereas the shared configurable resources (e.g., infrastructure, platform, and software) are provided to computers and other devices are as services. Strongly promoted by the leading industrial companies like, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, IBM, etc, In recent years, service computing are quickly becoming popular. Applications are deployed in real time environment are typically large scale and complex. The rising popularity of service computing, it is how to build high-quality service applications it becomes an urgently required research problem. In Similar, the traditional component-based systems, cloud applications are typically involves multiple cloud components communicating with each other over application programming interfaces, through web services. On-functional performance of cloud services are usually described by the quality-of-service (QoS). QoS is an important research topic in cloud computing. When the creation optimal cloud service selection from a set of functionally corresponding services, QoS values are of cloud services provided the valuable information to assist decision making. The component-based systems, software components are invoked locally in tradition, while in cloud applications, the cloud services are invoked remotely by Internet connections. To evade the slow and expensive real-world service invocation QoS ranking prediction framework is used. This framework requires no extra invocations of cloud services when making QoS ranking prediction can implement novel collaborative filtering approach to recommend the web services with improved performance.

Decision support for personalized cloud service selection through multi-attribute trustworthiness evaluation

Facing a customer market with rising demands for cloud service dependability and security, trustworthiness evaluation techniques are becoming essential to cloud service selection. But these methods are out of the reach to most customers as they require considerable expertise. Additionally, since the cloud service evaluation is often a costly and time-consuming process, it is not practical to measure trustworthy attributes of all candidates for each customer. Many existing models cannot easily deal with cloud services which have very few historical records. In this paper, we propose a novel service selection approach in which the missing value prediction and the multi-attribute trustworthiness evaluation are commonly taken into account. By simply collecting limited historical records, the current approach is able to support the personalized trustworthy service selection. The experimental results also show that our approach performs much better than other competing ones with respect to the customer preference and expectation in trustworthiness assessment. © 2014 Ding et al
