The paper introduces Smart Grids and the methodology for the selection of ICT technologies for them. It describes the quality and implementation-operating parameters for evaluation ICT technologies and services and applications running in Smart Grids. The methodology is based on a comparison of these parameters. This methology is also based on the availability and reliability of ICT technologies....
The goal of service oriented architectures (SOAs) is to enable the creation of business applications through the automatic discovery and composition of independently developed and deployed (Web) services. Automatic discovery of Web services (WSs) can be achieved by incorporating semantics into a richer WS description model (WSDM) and by the use of semantic Web (SW) technologies in the WS matchmaking...
Wireless sensor networks are increasingly being used in applications where QoS and low cost are the overriding considerations. Conventional schemes of using sensor nodes and incorporating these three phenomena (reliability, availability and serviceability) to attain QoS can effectively improve not only the reliability of the overall WSNs but security as well. We discuss the reverse look of QoS and...
We developed a quality of service (QoS) management system to support service level management (SLM) for global enterprise services. The QoS management system is integrated with one of our enterprise services in a preproduction system, an identical system as the production system but in a test environment. Lab experiments showed that our integrated solution helps global enterprise services to better...
In this paper we discuss the use cases for monitoring of Web services for compliance with policies and service level agreements. In particular, the quality of service associated with Web service interactions and its monitoring rely on the proper use by both parties of related Web service protocols. This monitoring is best served by an event-centric model and an extensible scripting language, such...
The next generation Internet will be highly diversified in both underlying networking technologies and supported networking applications. The diversified Internet architecture requires effective collaboration among heterogeneous network domains to support various application requirements. One of the challenges to achieve this objective lies in enabling network domain collaboration and network-application...
