A novel composite web service selection based on quality of service

Using the internet, as a dynamic environment thanks to its distributed characteristic, for web service deployment has become a crucial issue in QoS-driven service composition. An accurate adaption should be undertaken to provide a reliable service composition which enables the composited services are being executed appropriately. That is, the critical aspect of service composition is the proper execution of combination of web services while the appropriate service adaption performed with respect to predetermined functional and non-functional characteristics. In this paper, we attempts to deliberate the optimization approaches to devise the appropriate scheme for QoS-based composite web service selection

SLA based cloud service composition using genetic algorithm

Cloud computing tends to provide high quality on-demand services to the users. Numerous services are evolving today. Functionally similar services are having different non-functional properties such as reliability, availability, accessibility, response time and cost. A single service is inadequate for constructing the business process. Such business process is modeled as composite service. Composite service consists of several atomic services connected by workflow patterns. Selecting services for service composition with the constraints specified in Service Level Agreement is the NP-hard problem. Such a cloud service composition problem is modeled in this paper. Genetic based cloud service composition algorithm (GCSC) is proposed. Proposed algorithm is compared with the existing genetic based cloud service composition algorithm based on average utility rate and convergence time. It is proved that the proposed algorithm provides better performance as compared to the existing cloud service composition algorithm

A Review on Framework and Quality of Service Based Web Services Discovery

Selection of Web services (WSs) is one of the most important steps in the application of different types of WSs such as WS composition systems and the Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration (UDDI) registries. The more available these WSs on the Internet are, the wider the number of these services whose functions match the various service requests is. Selecting WSs with higher quality largely depends on the quality of service (QoS) since it plays a significant role in selecting such services. In achieving this selection of the best WSs, the potential WSs are ranked according to the user’s necessities on service quality. In many cases, the value of QoS ontology is realized by its support for nonfunctional features of WSs. This ontology is also capable of providing solutions to the interoperability of QoS description. Moreover, based on the QoS ontology, it becomes more possible to develop a framework of semantic WS discovery. The framework enhances the automatic discovery of WSs and can improve the users’ efficiency in finding the best web services. Thus, Web Services are software functionalities publish and accessible through the Internet. Different protocols and web mechanism have been defined to access these Services

A New Manufacturing Service Selection and Composition Method Using Improved Flower Pollination Algorithm

With an increasing number of manufacturing services, the means by which to select and compose these manufacturing services have become a challenging problem. It can be regarded as a multiobjective optimization problem that involves a variety of conflicting quality of service (QoS) attributes. In this study, a multiobjective optimization model of manufacturing service composition is presented that is based on QoS and an environmental index. Next, the skyline operator is applied to reduce the solution space. And then a new method called improved Flower Pollination Algorithm (FPA) is proposed for solving the problem of manufacturing service selection and composition. The improved FPA enhances the performance of basic FPA by combining the latter with crossover and mutation operators of the Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm. Finally, a case study is conducted to compare the proposed method with other evolutionary algorithms, including the Genetic Algorithm, DE, basic FPA, and extended FPA. The experimental results reveal that the proposed method performs best at solving the problem of manufacturing service selection and composition

Call Limit-Based Composite Service Selection

International audienceAPIs allow companies to export, via the Internet, their skills and know-how, or even to open up new markets and new media for sale. But to fully exploit the advantages of these services, customers, mainly developers, must be equipped with tools giving the possibility of being able to assemble different services together. Fortunately, the notion of service composition is quite advanced, and different tools exist to compose services. However, as APIs with similar functionality are expected to be provided by competing providers, the key challenge is to find the most relevant compositions. This issue has been addressed in the context of QoS-based composite service selection. The downside, in practice, customers choose services based on the number of call limits. In this paper, we propose an approach to select the most relevant compositions based on the notion of call limit. Specifically, we show how the call limits of the individual services can be aggregated to obtain the call limits of a given composition. Then, we introduce the notion of minimal budget skyline, which comprises the most interesting compositions that fit within the customer's budget. In addition, we develop two algorithms, based on effective pruning strategies, to efficiently compute the minimal budget skyline. Finally, we present a thorough experimental evaluation of our approach
