Need for Decentralization Let us consider the following scenario which illustrates the benefits of private registries and having the ability to One of the main reasons that the UDDI specifications interact with other private registries. We can imagine a decided to acknowledge replication model for data in manufacturer that maintains a private registry to maintain registries instead of distribution is to enable inspection of details about its suppliers and other partners. Now consider data in UDDI along multiple perspectives. There can be a case when its suppliers are unable to meet its demands potentially several facets to distribute data in UDDI, such either due to adverse circumstances or large orders, and the as those related to geographical location, nature of manufacturer has to locate other suppliers. Due to trust registered services, business functionality, technical issues, the manufacturer may not want to search the UBR specifications and so on.

Copying permitted for private and academic purposes. Re-publication of material from this volume requires permission by the copyright owners. Preface Service oriented computing (SOC) has rapidly transformed from a vision, in the beginning of the century, to realisation in paradigms such as Web services, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and cloud services. While this has provided the industry and practitioners with the opportunities for a new generation of products and services, it has brought forward a tremendous amount of challenges and open issues for researchers. The International Con- ferences on Service Oriented Computing (ICSOC) is a pioneering event for researchers, practitioners and industry leaders to discuss and share the success and achievements in this area. The ICSOC PhD Symposium, as part of the ICSOC conference, is an international forum for PhD students working in the broad areas of service computing, web services and ser- vice engineering to present and discuss emerging research problems and ideas on how to tackle these issues. The forum is intended to bring together PhD students and give them the opportunity to present and discuss their research in a constructively critical atmosphere. The symposium operates in a workshop format, giving PhD students an opportunity to showcase their research and providing them with feedback from senior international re- searchers and peer PhD students.

Automation of dynamic web service discovery is and enterprise application integration have been extended to the made viable by expression of domain specific knowledge [2] [4]. use of web service. With web services being accepted and Today’s systems, and the enterprises in which they reside, are so deployed in both research and industrial areas, the security related complex that even the most capable risk measurement tools are issues become important. Web services security has attracted the unlikely to yield risk values that are much better than rough attention of researchers in the area of security due to the proven indications of relative risk which, we should quickly add, is often fact that most attacks to businesses and organizations exploit web quite good enough in many situations. The problem is that the service vulnerabilities.

  • REST Web Service Description for Graph-Based Service Discovery
    REST Web Service Description for Graph-Based Service Discovery B Rosa Alarcon, Rodrigo Saffie, Nikolas Bravo( ), and Javiera Cabello Computer Science Department, Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, Santiago, Chile [email protected], {rasaffie,ngbravo,jacabell}@uc.cl Abstract. Unlike WSDL/SOAP based services, REST services lack a widely accepted service description since it increases the coupling between clients and servers, hampering service evolution. In practice, REST services are described through informal, ad-hoc and semi- structured documents, often written in natural language, which wors- ens the level of coupling. Most of the few REST service descriptions currently proposed follow an operation-centric approach with unclear additional benefits for developers and consumers. We propose a service description model focused on hypermedia allowing the generation of a graph that captures state transitions in an activity layer;wealsocapture resource, transition, and response semantics in a semantic layer. Using graph queries we traverse the graph and facilitate service discovery and composition. The service model was implemented as Microdata-based annotations, and a JSON description. A prototype was developed using Neo4J, and a set of real Web APIs was chosen to illustrate our approach. 1 Introduction The Web is an Internet-scale distributed hypermedia that provides a uniform way of accessing information through embedding action controls within the infor- mation retrieved from remote sites (i.e. representations). These features have made possible for the Web to evolve from a content-distribution platform to an application platform, and nowadays, to a distributed services platform, where functionality can be integrated into new services for massive consumption.

    16th ICCRTS “Collective C2 in Multinational Civil-Military Operations” Title of Paper Adapting WS-Discovery for use in tactical networks Topic(s) Primary: Topic 9: Networks and Networking Alternatives: Topic 8: Architectures, Technologies, and Tools, Topic 6: Experimentation, Metrics, and Analysis Name of Author(s) Frank T. Johnsen and Trude Hafsøe Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI) P.O. Box 25 2027 Kjeller, Norway Point of Contact Frank T. Johnsen Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI) P.O. Box 25 2027 Kjeller, Norway [email protected] Abstract The NATO Network Enabled Capabilities (NNEC) feasibility study has identified Web services as a key enabling technology for NNEC. The technology is founded on a number of civil standards, ensuring interoperability across different operating systems and programming languages. This also makes the technology a natural choice for interoperability also in multinational civil-military operations, where a large number of heterogeneous systems need to exchange information. Web services provide loose coupling and late binding, which are desirable properties in such a setting. Discovering available services in an operation is essential, and the discovery process must leverage standards to ensure interoperable information exchange. WS-Discovery is a standard for Web services discovery suited for dynamic environments and civil networks, but has high overhead and is not so suitable for tactical networks. Like the other Web services standards, it uses XML for encoding messages. In civil networks bandwidth is abundant, but in tactical networks XML may incur unacceptable overhead. However, the W3C has created a specification for efficient XML interchange (EXI), which reduces XML overhead by defining a binary interchange format.

  • Web Service Discovery with Implicit Qos Filtering
    Web Service Discovery with Implicit QoS Filtering Natallia Kokash DIT - University of Trento, Via Sommarive, 14, 38050 Trento, Italy email: [email protected] Abstract. Web Service (WS) discovery is a critical problem hinder- ing web service technology proliferation. The current solution, based on catalog-style browsing, provides no control over the quality of registered services. Application of matching techniques for WS retrieval is still un- der investigation. The objective of this work is the design of a framework to improve WS discovery. Our approach is based on application of dis- tributed recommendation system to provide Quality of Service (QoS) information and on testing of retrieval methods on service specifications. 1 Introduction WS paradigm is a promising model of software technology, based on loosely coupled, distributed and independent services operating via the web infrastruc- ture. To overcome platform and language dependence, services are described using Web Service Description Language (WSDL). Standardized XML-based interfaces help performing service reuse. Service descriptions are cataloged in Universal Discovery, Description and Integration (UDDI) registries. Although there exists a stack of standards to regulate the communication of processes and automated tools to convert legacy applications into web services, WS technology is still not widely used. One of the reasons is the lack of means to support WS discovery, i.e., the identification of existing WSs that can be used by new web applications. This problem is rather extensive and admits various interpretations [4]. Under automated discovery, a requester agent performs service search and evaluates the results. Currently UDDI registries are the dominating technolog- ical basis for WS discovery.
