Context Aware Service

Machine-to-Machine (M2M) systems and cloud services provide various kinds of data via distributed Web services. A context-aware service recognizes real-world contexts from such data and behaves autonomously. However, it has been challenging to manage contexts and services defined on the heterogeneous and distributed Web services. In this paper, the authors propose a framework, called RuCAS, which systematically creates and manages context-aware service using various Web services. RuCAS describes every context-aware service by an ECA (Event-Condition-Action) rule. For this, an event is a context triggering the service, a condition is a set of contexts to be satisfied for execution, and the action is a set of Web services to be executed by the service. Thus, every context-aware service is managed in a uniform manner. Since RuCAS is published as a Web service, created contexts and services are reusable. As a case study, RuCAS is applied to a real home network system.

The home network is one of the emerging areas from the last century. However, the growth of the home network market is stationary at present. This paper describes the limitations of the home network system and the requirements for overcoming the current limitations. Also described is a new home network service system known as COWS and its easy installation and scalable operation. COWS consists of power consumption monitor and control devices along with a service server that is a complementary combination of Open Service Gateway initiative (OSGi) and web services. A home network system has a dynamic, heterogeneous, distributed, and scalable topology. Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) has been proposed as a solution that satisfies the requirement of a home network, and OSGi and web services are two successful SOA-based frameworks. An included service server has a flexible architecture that consists of a core and extendable service packages. A power consumption monitor and control function provides useful context information for activity-based context-aware services and optimizes the power consumption. The system can be installed easily into existing and new houses to solve the current barrier of the popularization of home network services.

The I\O file system Read\Write operations are considered the most significant characteristics. Where, many researchers focus on their works on how to decrease the response time of I\O file system read\write operations. However, most articles concentrate on how to read\write content of the file in parallelism manner. Here in this paper, the author considers the parallelizing Read\Write whole file bytes not only its contents. A case study has been applied in order to make the idea more clear. It talks about two techniques of uploading\downloading files via Web Service. The first one is a traditional way where the files uploaded and downloaded serially. While the second one is uploaded\ downloaded files using Java thread in order to simulate parallelism technique. Java Netbeans 8.0.2 have been used as a programming environment to implement the Download\Upload files through Web Services. Validation results are also presented via using Mat-lab platform as benchmarks. The visualized figures of validation results are clearly clarifying that the second technique shows better response time in comparison to the traditional way.

In recent years, the number of web services grows explosively. With a large amount of information resources, it is difficult for users to quickly find the services they need. Thus, the design of an effective web service recommendation method has become the key factor to satisfy the requirements of users. However, traditional recommendation methods often tend to pay more attention to the accuracy of the results but ignore the diversity, which may lead to redundancy and overfitting, thus reducing the satisfaction of users. Considering these drawbacks, a novel method called DivMTID is proposed to improve the effectiveness by achieving accurate and diversified recommendations. First, we utilize users’ historical scores of web services to explore the users’ preferences. And we use the TF-IDF algorithm to calculate the weight vector of each web service. Second, we utilize cosine similarity to calculate the similarity between candidate web services and historical web services and we also forecast the ranking scores of candidate web services. At last, a diversification method is used to generate the top- K recommended list for users. And through a case study, we show that DivMTID is an effective, accurate, and diversified web service recommendation method.

This chapter presents a ‘Case Study’ based on the distributed market. The requirements of this Grid Business Process are more demanding than any typical business process deployed within a single organization or enterprise. Recently different specifications built on top of Web service standards have originated from the Grid paradigm to address limitations of stateless Web services. These emerging specifications are evaluated in the first part of the chapter to capture requirements of a dynamic business process i.e. Business Process Grid. In second part of the chapter, a case study with different use cases is presented to simulate various scenarios. The abstract discussion and requirements of the case study is followed by the actual implementation. The implementation is meant for the proof-of-concept rather than fully functional application.

This chapter reports on our experience of designing and implementing an architecture for protecting enterprise-grade Web service applications hosted by ASP.NET. Security mechanisms of Microsoft ASP.NET container—a popular hosting environment for Web services—have limited scalability, flexibility, and extensibility. They are therefore inade-quate for hosting enterprise-scale applications that need to be protected according to diverse and/or complex application-specific security policies. To overcome the limitations of ASP.NET security, we developed a flexible and extensible protection architecture. Deployed in a real-world security solution at a financial organization, the architecture enables integra-tion of ASP.NET into the organizational security infrastructure with reduced effort on the part of Web Service developers. Throughout this report, we discuss our design decisions, suggest best practices for constructing flexible and extensible authentication and authoriza-tion logic for Web Services, and share lessons learned.

Different cloud services need different resources, how to use the resources efficiently has become one of the hot research topics about cloud computing. In order to improve the utilization of resources in cloud, this paper proposes an automatic cloud service classification method, which uses an artificial neural network to predict the type of service resource requirements, and classifies services based on the predicting result. In this paper, we do classification experiments on three groups of Web services on Web service site. The experiment results show that, the method is effective and can predict the type of resource requirements for Web services automatically.

Service Clustering

With the large number of web services now available via the internet, web service discovery has become a challenging and time-consuming task. Organizing web services into similar clusters is a very efficient approach to reducing the search space. A principal issue for clustering is computing the semantic similarity between services. Current approaches do not consider the domain-specific context in measuring similarity and this has affected their clustering performance. This paper proposes a context-aware similarity (CAS) method that learns domain context by machine learning to produce models of context for terms retrieved from the web. To analyze visually the effect of domain context on the clustering results, the clustering approach applies a spherical associated-keyword-space algorithm. The CAS method analyzes the hidden semantics of services within a particular domain, and the awareness of service context helps to find cluster tensors that characterize the cluster elements. Experimental results show that the clustering approach works efficiently.
