  • Dynamic Deployment of Specialized ESB Instances in the Cloud
    Institute of Architecture of Application Systems University of Stuttgart Universitätsstraße 38 D-70569 Stuttgart Master Thesis No. 3671 Dynamic Deployment of Specialized ESB instances in the Cloud Roberto Jiménez Sánchez Course of Study: Infotech (Non-Degree) Examiner: Prof. Dr. Frank Leymann Supervisors: Santiago Gómez Sáez Johannes Wettinger Commenced: May 22, 2014 Completed: November 21, 2014 CR-Classification: C.2.4 ; D.2 Abstract In the last years the interaction among heterogeneous applications within one or among mul- tiple enterprises has considerably increased. This fact has arisen several challenges related to how to enable the interaction among enterprises in an interoperable manner. Towards addressing this problem, the Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) has been proposed as an integration middleware capable of wiring all the components of an enterprise system in a transparent and interoperable manner. Enterprise Service Buses are nowadays used to transparently establish and handle interactions among the components within an application or with consumed exter- nal services. There are several ESB solutions available in the market as a result of continuously developing message-based approaches aiming at enabling interoperability among enterprise applications. However, the configuration of an ESB is typically custom, and complex. More- over, there is little support and guidance for developers related to how to efficiently customize and configure the ESB with respect to their application requirements. Consequently, this fact also increments notably the maintenance and operational costs for enterprises. Our target is mainly to simplify the configuration tasks at the same time as provisioning customized ESB instances to satisfy the application’s functional and non-functional requirements.

Mit Hilfe der Workflow-Technologie können Geschäftsprozesse erstellt werden, die schnell an geänderte Umgebungen angepasst werden können. Sie bildet zudem die Basis des zweistufigen Programmierparadigmas. Workflow Management Systeme, die die Workflow-Technologie implemen- tieren, sind eine Kernkomponente der Middleware, deren Performance wesent- lich die Ausführungsgeschwindigkeit der Anwendungen bestimmt, die mit ihnen gebaut werden. Die vorgestelllte Dissertation entwickelt einen Satz von Optimierungstech- niken für ein modernes Workflow Management System, das Robustheit mit Per- formance kombiniert. Dieses Workflow Management System wird Stuttgarter Workflow Maschine (SWoM) genannt, nach dem Ort der Entwicklung. Folgende neuartige Ansätze wurden entwickelt, um das Ziel zu erreichen.

  • Quantum Software Development Lifecycle, Published in Quantum Software Engineering, Edited by M
    This is a preprint of the following chapter: Benjamin Weder, Johanna Barzen, Frank Leymann, and Daniel Vietz: Quantum Software Development Lifecycle, published in Quantum Software Engineering, edited by M. Serrano, M. Piattini, and R. Perez-Castillo, 2022, Springer Quantum Software Development Lifecycle Benjamin Weder, Johanna Barzen, Frank Leymann, AND Daniel VIETZ Abstract WITH RECENT ADVANCES IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF MORE POWERFUL QUANTUM com- puters, THE RESEARCH AREA OF QUANTUM SOFTWARE ENGINEERING IS EMERging, HAVING THE GOAL TO PROVIDE concepts, PRinciples, AND GUIDELINES TO DEVELOP high-qUALITY QUANTUM applications. In CLASSICAL SOFTWARE ENGINEERing, LIFECYCLES ARE USED TO DOCUMENT THE PROCESS OF designing, implementing, maintaining, ANALyzing, AND ADAPTING SOFTWare. SucH LIFECYCLES PROVIDE A COMMON UNDERSTANDING OF HOW TO DEVELOP AND OPERATE AN application, WHICH IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT DUE TO THE INTERDISCIPLINARY NATURE OF QUANTUM computing. Since TODAy‘s QUANTUM APPLICATIONS are, IN MOST cases, HYBRid, CONSISTING OF QUANTUM AND CLASSICAL PROGrams, THE LIFECYCLE FOR QUANTUM APPLICATIONS MUST INVOLVE THE DEVELOPMENT OF BOTH KINDS OF PROGrams. HoWEVER, THE EXISTING LIFe- CYCLES ONLY TARGET THE DEVELOPMENT OF QUANTUM OR CLASSICAL PROGRAMS IN isolation. ADDITIONALLY, THE VARIOUS PROGRAMS MUST BE ORCHEStrated, e.g., USING WorkfloWs. Thus, THE DEVELOPMENT OF QUANTUM APPLICATIONS ALSO INCORPORATES THE WorkfloW LIFECYcle. In THIS CHAPTER, WE ANALYZE THE SOFTWARE ARTIFACTS USUALLY COMPRISING A QUANTUM applica- TION AND PRESENT THEIR CORRESPONDING

  • Benefits of Business Process Context for Human Task Management
    International Journal of Trade, Economics and Finance, Vol. 2, No. 4, August 2011 Benefits of Business Process Context for Human Task Management Matthias Wieland, Daniela Nicklas, and Frank Leymann in a workflow) can be a service call or a human action. Single Abstract—Context-aware systems adapt their functionality steps of the application can be monitored and represented in and behavior to the user and his or her situation. To do so, they the context model. In standard (programmed instead of need context information about the user’s environment, e.g., modeled) applications, the internal control flow is not visible about different kinds of real world objects. Many systems and for external users and applications. Hence, it is difficult to data models are available for the management of context information. An often neglected but important part of context is determine the context of a standard application. On the other the state and context of the applications that users are currently hand, it is very important for context-aware workflows to be executing. This paper presents the benefits of using the context able to query dynamic up-to-date context information at of workflow-based applications in the area of human task runtime. In combination with a context model, such data can management. We show what kind of new task clients for mobile be easily made available for workflows. In this area, many users are enabled by a context model for business process works have already been published and this is not the focus management and present an implementation of the system.
