Service composition environments enable people to create, manage, share services, and compose atomic services for their own requirements. Since users and service entity hosts are always distributed in locations in such environments, service responses might be very slow if users invoke services that are physically far from them, which is even slower for invoking composite services. However, those problems...
A composite Web service designed based on abstract Web services, which define only interfaces, allows an application developer to select services required for his application only by setting endpoints for the atomic Web services. In open environment, however, the composite Web service configured in this manner may fail due to unique behaviors of the selected services. It is difficult for the designer...
Public Web services are not designed to be used with specific other Web services in a composite Web service. This leads to the following requirements for the proper control of a composite Web service; 1) adaptation to changes in Web services, 2) coordinating the contexts of internal processing, 3) flexible execution of human tasks.

In Japan, for example, local governments and NPOs create parallel-texts and provide expression services in such fields. However, these services present a common difficulty: the lack of parallel-texts. Service-computing technology has the potential to allow them...
This paper reports on our experiences with combining Heart of Gold and Language Grid technology to provide more language resources available on Web. Heart of Gold is known as middleware architecture for integrating deep and shallow natural language processing components. The language grid is an infrastructure built on top of the Internet to provide distributed language services. Having Heart of Gold...
