Big Data analytics provide support for decision making by discovering patterns and other useful information from large set of data. Organizations utilizing advanced analytics techniques to gain real value from Big Data will grow faster than their competitors and seize new opportunities. Cross-Industry Standard Process for Data Mining (CRISP-DM) is an industry-proven way to build predictive analytics...
Modern scientific data management and analysis usually rely on multiple scientists with diverse expertise. In recent years, such a collaborative effort is often structured and automated by a data flow-oriented process called scientific workflow. However, such workflows may have to be designed and revised among multiple scientists over a long time period. Existing workbenches are single user-oriented...
Services Computing has become an increasingly important area in the IT and business sectors. In particular, Services now account for more than half of the economy in the United States and other countries. Numerous Services Computing-related degree programs and accreditation processes are being created. However, very few systematic guidelines exist for building graduate programs for Services Computing...
Large-scale scientific data management and analysis usually relies on many distributed scientists with diverse expertise. In recent years, such a collaborative effort is often composed and automated into a dataflow-oriented process, a so-called scientific workflow. However, existing scientific workflow tools are single user-oriented and do not support collaborative scientific workflow composition,...
Scientific workflows have become an important instrument for domain scientists to synergistically integrate distributed computations and data to accelerate scientific discoveries. Existing scientific workflow tools, however, only support single scientists to compose scientific workflows in a desktop application. Nowadays, many scientific research projects are becoming increasingly larger scale, requiring...
This paper discusses and analyzes the business process layer in the SOA solution stack (S3) model, which is also known as the SOA reference architecture (SOA-RA). Business process layer leverages the service layer to quickly compose and choreograph services and to coordinate business processes to fulfill customer requirements. Based on industry practice, we introduce a set of architectural building...
This paper introduces the design of a template of architectural building blocks (ABBs) for the service component layer in the SOA solution stack (S3) reference architecture. SOA solution architects can use the industry practice-based template as a starting point to quickly configure, customize, and prototype their application-specific service component layer that provides code containers that implement...
Services computing has been recognized as a new foundational discipline of the modern services industry. The Technical Committee on Services Computing (TC-SVC) within IEEE Computer Society is leading an initiative to promote Services Computing Curriculum around the world. This paper defines eleven key knowledge areas in the field of Services Computing. Based on defined knowledge areas, we report 2008...
