Distributed aspect-oriented service composition for business compliance governance with public service processes
Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) offers a technical foundation for Enterprise Application Integration and
business collaboration through service-based business components. With increasing process outsourcing and cloud computing, enterprises need process-level integration and collaboration (process-oriented) to quickly launch new business processes for new customers and products. However, business processes that cross organisationsā compliance regulation boundaries are still unaddressed. We introduce a distributed aspect-oriented service composition approach, which enables multiple process clients hot-plugging their business compliance models (business rules, fault handling policy, and execution monitor) to BPEL business processes
Fault Tolerant Adaptive Parallel and Distributed Simulation through Functional Replication
This paper presents FT-GAIA, a software-based fault-tolerant parallel and
distributed simulation middleware. FT-GAIA has being designed to reliably
handle Parallel And Distributed Simulation (PADS) models, which are needed to
properly simulate and analyze complex systems arising in any kind of scientific
or engineering field. PADS takes advantage of multiple execution units run in
multicore processors, cluster of workstations or HPC systems. However, large
computing systems, such as HPC systems that include hundreds of thousands of
computing nodes, have to handle frequent failures of some components. To cope
with this issue, FT-GAIA transparently replicates simulation entities and
distributes them on multiple execution nodes. This allows the simulation to
tolerate crash-failures of computing nodes. Moreover, FT-GAIA offers some
protection against Byzantine failures, since interaction messages among the
simulated entities are replicated as well, so that the receiving entity can
identify and discard corrupted messages. Results from an analytical model and
from an experimental evaluation show that FT-GAIA provides a high degree of
fault tolerance, at the cost of a moderate increase in the computational load
of the execution units.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1606.0731
