SummaryIn this overview paper, we discuss the basic principles underlying service-oriented computing in general, and (Web) services in particular. We discuss the important differences between (Web) services and Web applications and other models in Internet computing. Finally, we discuss where we see the future research challenges in the area of service composition.

Web services are an emerging technology that has attracted much attention from both the research and the industry sectors in recent years. The exploitation of Web services as components in Web applications facilitates development and supports application interoperability, regardless of the programming language and platform used. However, existing Web services development standards do not take into account the fact that the provided content and the interactive functionality should be accessible to, and easily operable by, people with disabilities. This chapter presents a platform named myWebAccess, which provides a mechanism for the semi-automated “repair” of Web services' interaction characteristics in order to support the automatic generation of interface elements that conform to the de facto standard of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0. myWebAccess enhances interaction quality for specific target user groups, including people with visual and motor disabilities, and supports the use of Web services on diverse platforms (e.g., mobile phones equipped with a browser). The Web developers can build their own design templates and the users of myWebAccess can create a personalized environment containing their favourite services. Thus, they can interact with them through interfaces appropriate to their specific individual characteristics.

Everyday activities are equipped with smart intellectual possessions in the modern Internet domain for which a wide range of web services are deployed in business, health-care systems, and environmental solutions. Entire services are accessed through web applications or hand-held computing devices. The recommender system is more prevalent in commercial applications. This research predicts the preference of consumers and lists the recommended services in order of ranking for consumers to choose services in a short time span. This proposed approach aims to offer the exact prediction of missing QoS (quality of service) value of web services at a specified time slice. The uncertainty of QoS value has been predicted using the cloud model theory. The focus is to give the global ranking using the aggregated ranking of the consumer's ranking list, which has been obtained through the Kemeny optimal aggregation algorithm. In this work, multidimensional QoS data of web services have experimented and given an accurate prediction and ranking in the web environment.

Abstract This article discusses the key points of developing a secure RESTful web service API for keeping a student achievement journal. The relevance of using web services has been analyzed. The classification of web applications is given. The features of the Single Page Application architecture were considered. Comparative characteristics of architectural styles of application programming interfaces are given. Requirements to be met by RESTful API services are considered. The basic principles of API security were analyzed. A list of the main vulnerabilities that may appear during the development of the REST API is given. An overview of popular authentication schemes (methods) is given. Comparative characteristics of web frameworks of the Python programming language are given. The main tools used in the development of web API applications are listed. The process of creating a secure prototype of a RESTful web service API in Python using the Flask microframework and a tool for describing the Swagger specifications is presented. The process of configuring the application was examined in detail. The main recommendations for securing a web application, database and web server settings are listed. The key points of ensuring the protection of the developed web application are considered. The results obtained were analyzed.
