As an emerging cloud service, cloud accounting can offer accounting solution and save much operation cost, which becomes popular among enterprises of all sizes. Facing with different cloud accounting providers, consumers with little domain knowledge have difficulties in choosing the suitable provider that can match their requirements. Therefore, developing a recommendation system can be a good way...
Along with the rapid development of Web services, user always want to make select decision according to their special preference demands of security attributes. This paper address the problem of service selection based on the Web services security assessment. First we use questionnaire to obtain the semantic and fuzzy information of user security attributes preferences. And then language fuzzy scale...
Web services based SOA are dramatically speeding up the application development process. They also see it as a way to build applications and systems that are more adaptable. Web services are poised to have a dramatic effect on business enterprises that think of themselves as independent of technology trends. Web services are being considered an excellent technology to solve distributed computing challenges...
Along with recent Internet security threats, different security measures have emerged. Whilst these security schemes ensure a level of protection against such threats, they sometimes have significant impact on perceived Quality of Service (QoS). There is thus need to retrieve ways for an efficient integration of security requirements with their QoS counterparts. In this paper, we devise a Quality...
The most promising advantages of Web service technology is the possibility of creating value-added services by compositing existing ones. Because of the characteristic of autonomy and openness, the security problem of Web service composition is increasing crucial. This paper applies the trust management into the field of Web service composition and addresses the topic of optimal selection of composition...
In order to accomplish the automatic and intelligent management to the satellite network, this paper designs a policy-driven self-management model which integrates all network management function components by policy engine to manage the network. In the model, policy decision point receives soft-faulty events, conducts policy decision-making and sends the results to the corresponding management function...
Nowadays, there is a large diffusion of open and dynamic cooperative architectures that are based on services (SOA). In general, a customer is not only interested in service functionalities, but also in its quality (i.e. performance, cost, reliability, security and so on). In this scenario, models, techniques and tools supporting the effective selection of the service that provides the better quality...
We present an architecture for self-configuration of network entities for QoS and Security, based on the health of the network. In the architecture, we firstly present a novel data collection mechanism that integrates various network inputs such as flow data, packet data and SNMP values. Secondly we present our analysis of these inputs based on QoS and Security aspects and discuss analysis mechanisms...
The Web service selection is a complex decision process. It engages multiple criteria for the selection of candidate service from a set of available services. There may be more than one web service meeting the functional requirements. The nonfunctional properties of these matching Web services may have varying values, which should be necessarily above minimum requirements. The selection criteria may...
A selection of an appropriate Web service can be viewed as a multi-criteria decision-making problem involving selection of multi-attribute candidate service from a set of available services. This selection should not be based on intuition but need thorough understanding of the decision problem and the process to prioritize the features and, hence services. This study proposes analytical hierarchy...
Information privacy is usually concerned with the confidentiality of personally identifiable information (PII), such as electronic medical records. Nowadays, Web services are used to support different applications which may contain PII, such as healthcare applications. Thus, the information access control mechanism for Web services must be embedded into privacy-enhancing technologies. Further as application...
Current fashion systems to interconnect large software architectures are moving toward SOA based solutions. This new paradigm for designing system can be improved, in our opinion, by using semantics. Semantics can a play a main role in boosting interoperability thanks to current technologies to express knowledge and to describe semantic Web services (SWS). This paper tackles the provision of a Software...
The Open Distributed Processing Reference Model (ODP-RM) provides viewpoints and abstract infrastructure guidelines that can be used for a basis for enterprise architecture, especially for an inter-enterprise architecture. The ODP-RM does not prescribe methodology for modeling itself, but provides common vocabulary and focus for description. This paper performs a brief analysis of the ODP-RM (and...
Distributed DC battery supported power systems are a requirement of many industries. The management and maintenance of such systems presents unique difficulties due to the quantity and distributed nature of the industries involved. Astute solutions are therefore required if we are to significantly reduce maintenance costs and improve the quality of service. The efficient application of technology...
