The efforts and findings of the last decades of research on the formalization and the verification of Web services have given a certain level of assurance on Web services. However new challenges such as high availability and security issues are not fully addressed. In fact, Web services are exposed to attacks that appear continuously. These issues have naturally paved the way to a new research topic...
The ability to run and manage multi-clouds applications (i.e., Applications that run on multiple clouds) allows exploiting the peculiarities of each cloud solution and hence improves non-functional aspects such as availability, cost, and scalability. Monitoring such multi-clouds applications is fundamental to track the health of the applications themselves and of their underlying infrastructures as...
A Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a versatile sensing system whose hardware resources are scarce and have to be carefully used and hence adapted to face with their context and resources changing. Moreover, WSN could be used in unreachable or dangerous places, hence their adaptation should be remotely managed. In this paper, we propose a model-driven approach able to generate agents governing the...
Systems based on service-oriented architecture are called service-based systems (SBS), and comprise of computing services offered by various organizations. SBS often require their services to be composed in complex workflows to perform their high-level tasks. The users usually have certain expectations on the overall QoS (quality of service) of their workflows. Due to the highly dynamic environments...
We observe two of the recent trends in information technology. Cloud Computing (CC) is widely accepted as an effective reuse paradigm. Mobile Computing with Mobile Internet Device (MID) such as iPhones and Android devices becomes a convenient alternative to personal computers by integrating mobility, communication, software functionality, and entertainment. Due to the resource limitations of MIDs,...
To deal with variations, statistical methodologies can be completed by monitoring techniques implemented to cope with dynamic variations while keeping optimized operating points. This paper proposes a new monitoring structure, located in parallel of a pre-defined observable flip-flop. This structure, coupled with a specific detection window generation, embedded within the clock-tree, can anticipate...
Access to multimedia services over heterogeneous networks and terminals is of increasing market interest, while providing end-to-end quality of service (QoS) guarantees in multi-domain environment is still a challenge. This paper describes a service oriented monitoring system designed for use in multi-domain heterogeneous networking environment for the purpose of supporting cross-network audiovisual...
