Web Service Composition is one of the technologies in Service Oriented Architecture which significantly increases the flexibility and reusability of developing service-oriented system. One of the major problems which occurs in web service composition is the difficulties of maintaining the existing running web service composition solutions due to the changes of business requirements, deployment environment, and other dynamic factors. In this proposed work, an automated system had been built to autonomously execute the web service composition. To achieve this objective, the authors had embedded semantic engine and Prolog in C# program to automatically and dynamically discover, compose and execute web service composition, i.e. a web service composition could be self-configured to automatically recover from execution failure and automatically re-generate composition solution due to business protocol changes.

Service oriented architecture has revolutionized the way a traditional business process is executed. The success of this architecture is Indue to the composition of multiple heterogeneous services at runtime. Web service composition is a mechanism where several web services are combined at runtime to build a complex application for a user. It is one of the most sought after processes in the context of semantic web. But, composition of web services at runtime is a difficult task owing to the availability of multiple service providers offering the same functionality. The process if exasperated by due conflicting preferences of a service consumer. In this paper, the authors address the issue of selecting a service based on Quality of Service (QoS) attributes. They utilize concepts customized from physics to create an environment that facilitates the selection of a best service from the set of similar services. The technique not only facilitates the selection of the service with the best QoS attributes, but distributes the load among expeditiously. Here in this paper, the authors concentrate on minimizing and equitably balancing the waiting time for a user. They conduct in silico experiments on multiple workflows to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed technique to balance load efficiently among similar service offerings.

the motivation behind this chapter is that Service Oriented architecture issued to compose an application as a set of services that are language and platform independent, communicate with each other, Therefore, user preferences rules in web service composition process plays crucial role and has opened a wide spectrum of challenge, In this chapter, an agent for composing web services based on user preferences was introduced to fulfill a certain process, where the user preferences are essential for determining which web service are to be selected. In other word, the agent designed to maintain the following function: an intelligent web services selection and planning based on user preferences(such as price or availability), along with web services execution, tracking and adaptation.

Enterprise Security

The continuous adoption of service-oriented architecture (SOA) and web services across vertical industries, geographies, and organization sizes generates new major security concerns both for individuals and organizations. Many of the features that make web services attractive, including greater accessibility of data, dynamic application-to-application connections, and relative autonomy are at odds with traditional security models and controls. Current web service composition technologies still present serious risks to individual and enterprise security and privacy. In the presence of multiple providers that coordinate to provide a composite web service, these issues are amplified. Web services security, privacy, and forensics investigations are therefore becoming a serious concern, especially with the tremendous increase in cybernetic crimes. The aim of this work is to draw a comprehensive overview about security aspects related to web services composition by considering different branches related to security, privacy, and forensics investigations. For each security aspect, the problem statement and related works are discussed. Then, a proposed approach to deal with the aspect under consideration is presented.

In the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) model, a service is characterized by its exchange of asynchronous messages, and a service contract is a desirable composition of a variety of messages. Though this model is simple, implementing large-scale, cross-organizational distributed applications may be difficult to achieve in general, as there is no guarantee that service composition will be possible because of incompatibilities of Web service contracts. We categorize compatibility issues in Web service contracts into two broad categories: (a) between contracts of different services (which we define as a composability problem), and (b) a service contract and its implementation (which we define as a conformance problem). This chapter examines and addresses these problems, first by identifying and specifying contract compatibility conditions, and second, through the use of compatibility checking tools that enable application developers to perform checks at design time.

In this article, a novel benchmark toolkit, WSBen, for testing web services discovery and composition algorithms is presented. The WSBen includes: (1) a collection of synthetically generated web services files in WSDL format with diverse data and model characteristics; (2) queries for testing discovery and composition algorithms; (3) auxiliary files to do statistical analysis on the WSDL test sets; (4) converted WSDL test sets that conventional AI planners can read; and (5) a graphical interface to control all these behaviors. Users can finetune the generated WSDL test files by varying underlying network models. To illustrate the application of the WSBen, in addition, we present case studies from three domains: (1) web service composition; (2) AI planning; and (3) the laws of networks in Physics community. It is our hope that WSBen will provide useful insights in evaluating the performance of web services discovery and composition algorithms. The WSBen toolkit is available at: http://pike.psu.edu/sw/wsben/.

Šio mokslinio tyrimo tematika nagrinėja internetinių paslaugų kompozicijos atlikimo priemones ir būdus. Straipsnyje aprašomi vartotojo poreikiams pritaikytų internetinių paslaugų kompozicijos automatiniai ir pusiau automatiniai kūrimo būdai ir metodai, plačiau nagrinėjamos šių metodų galimybės ir apribojimai. Analizuojami moksliniuose straipsniuose pateikiami internetinių paslaugų kompozicijos atlikimo metodai ir išskiriami trys pagrindiniai šių paslaugų kompozicijos būdai: darbų srautų modeliais grindžiamas, paslaugų šablonais grindžiamas ir automatinis paslaugų kompozicijos metodas. Tyrimo tikslas – pateikti pasiūlymą, kuris leistų automatiniu ar pusiau automatiniu būdu kurti internetinių paslaugų kompozicijas pagal vartotojų poreikius. Pusiau automatinio internetinių paslaugų komponavimo uždavinio sprendimo būdą iliustruoja sudėtingas kelionės planavimo pavyzdys. Internetinių paslaugų kompozicijai atlikti siūloma taikyti dirbtinio intelekto planavimo metodus. Pateikiama tokio uždavinio sprendimo koncepcija, kuri grindžiama fragmentiniais kituose projektuose gautais paslaugų komponavimo rezultatais ir bando sujungti visą internetinių paslaugų kompozicijos procesą: nuo vartotojo keliamų kompozicijos reikalavimų įvedimo iki tinkamo paslaugų kompozicijos rezultatų pateikimo. Possibilities of automatic and semi-automatic end-user driven web service compositionDalė Dzemydienė, Arūnas Miliauskas  SummaryOur research work relates to the main principles, means and current limitations of the end-user driven automatic and semi-automatic web service composition. It analyses automatic and semi-automatic composition approaches found in literature and classifi es them as workfl ow-based, template-based and automatic methods. The aim of this research is to provide a proposal how to construct semiautomatic or automatic end-user driven web service composition. An approach is illustrated by the multi-complexity of service composition in travel domain. We analyze a conceptual solution that covers the whole composition process: from an end-user submitting composition requirements until the presentation of the a composition execution results. Some methods of an artifi cial intelligence (AI) planning research fi eld were used in proposed web service composition approach.
