The approach comprises a SOAP message ontology and a set of policy filters. The ontology is used in preserving the message structure including its constituent elements and their relationships. The policy filters check if the message complies with denial-of-service vulnerability restrictions. Message integrity is preserved using the ontology-based checker, which checks that the message has not been modified during the transmission process. Message confidentiality is preserved by encrypting a copy of the message in a log file combined with the message. Time efficiency is achieved by executing the policy filters in a concurrent manner.

The Service Component Definition Language (SCDL) and the Web Service Business Process Execution L... more The Service Component Definition Language (SCDL) and the Web Service Business Process Execution Language (WS-BPEL) are the standards de-facto used in the modeling and implementing of ServiceComponent Architecture (SCA). However, these powerful languages lack a formal foundation for the specification and verification of the SCA properties. In this study, the use of Wright formal ADL and Ada programming language was proposed to check the behavioral properties of SCDL/WS-BPEL ServiceComponent architectures. To achieve this, the mapping of SCDL/WS-BPEL to the Wright formal ADL was suggested in order to verify the standard behavioral consistency of the source description. As a second step, the target specification could be transformed into Ada to check the specific and dynamic behavioral properties of the SCDL/WS-BPEL source architecture.

The compositions of these services are used to meet business objectives. The web service choreography describes the external observable behavior of these compositions. Many compositions may available for same functionality. These compositions cannot be distinguished on the basis of functional properties. This Quality of services (QoS) may help the user to select web services and to analyze composition of the web services. Web service choreography is going to dictate implementation of workflow. This workflow consists of several tasks. Each task is implemented by web services. These services are hosted in large numbers by different service providers on different service clusters. The mapping of service and task is difficult issue in run time environment. The interoperability between services is also a great problem. The selection of services is very big issue.
In this paper we have proposed a bio-inspired selection algorithm based on dominant role and proposed a discovery infrastructure. We have also used the client behavior to improve the failure of the composition of the service.

It considered as one of the complex challenges in distributed and dynamic environment. The composition process includes, in general, the searching for existing services in a specific domain, and selecting the appropriate service, then coordinating composition flow and invoking services. Over the past years, the problem of web service composition has been studied intensively by researchers. Therefore, a significant amount of solutions and new methods to tackle this problem are presented. In this paper, our objective is to investigate algorithms and methodologies to provide a classification of existing methods in each composition phase. Moreover, we aim at conducting a comparative study to discover the main features and limitation in each phase in order to assist future research in this area.

The geolocation resource integrates virtual and real worlds, allowing the comprehension about these two scenarios at same time. Based on that, this work define a process of spatial analysis of shared information on a GSN. The present work proposes the usage of six spatial features as feedback about collaborative behaviour on city. The spatial analysis aims understand if users’ collaboration change among city census sectors. Understanding how users deal with GSNs in an area, will help about collaborative patterns per urban region. As result, this work detected spatial patterns among users in the GSN Foursquare of a Brazilian city. These patterns indicates that users’ collaboration receive influences of extrinsic and intrinsic features of GSN and the comprehension about their users is a complex task.

This service composition in the heterogeneous environment may suffer from various kinds of service failures. These failures interrupt the execution of composite web services and lead towards complete system failure. The dynamic recovery decisions of the failed services are dependent on non-functional attributes of the services. In the recent years, various methodologies have been presented to provide recovery decisions based on time related QoS (Quality of Service) factors. These QoS attributes can be categorized further. Our paper categorized these attributes as space and time. In this paper, we have proposed an affinity model to quantify the location affinity for composition of web services. Furthermore, we have also suggested a replication mechanism and algorithm for taking recovery decisions based on time and space based QoS parameters and usage pattern of the services by the user.

If these security policies are embedded in the services, their modifications require to modify the services, stop and deploy new version. Aspect oriented paradigm provides the possibility to define separated components that is named aspect. In this paper, in order to fulfill security requirements, we will classify required changes of services and for each classifications, how aspects injection will be described. Finally, we will present a pattern for each aspect of each classification.

Language specific crawlers are crawlers that traverse and collect the relative web pages using the successive URls of web page. There are very few research areas in crawling for Myanmar Language web sites. Most of the language specific crawlers are based on n-gram character sequences which require training documents. The proposed crawler differs from those crawlers. The proposed crawler searches and retrieves Myanmar web pages for Myanmar Language search engine. The proposed crawler detects the Myanmar character and rule-based syllable threshold is used to judgment the relevance of the pages. According to experimental results, the proposed crawler has better performance, achieves successful accuracy and storage space for search engines are lesser since it only crawls the relevant documents for Myanmar web sites.

Manual design and implementation of Web service compositions are among the most difficult and error prone tasks. To face this complexity and to reduce errors at design time, the developer can alternatively search and reuse existing compositions that have solved similar problems. Thus the problem of designing and implementing Web service compositions can be reduced to the problem of finding and selecting the composition closest to an initial specification. To achieve this goal, there is the need to define and use similarity measures to determine how close is a given composition with respect to any given specification. Comparison of Web service compositions can be done using two possible sources: composition designs (models), and execution logs of compositions. In particular, in this paper a set of similarity measures are described for Web service composition models. The main objective is to measure and assess the degree of closeness between two given compositions of Web services regardless of their modelling language.

Our research is focusing on increasing the number of services that User or Developer will use. We proposed a web service’s recommendation model by applying the data mining techniques like Apriori algorithm to suggest another web service beside the one he got from the discovery process based on the user’s History.
For implementing our model, we used a curated source for web services and users, which also contains a complete information about users and their web services usage. We found a BioCatalogue: our proposed model was tested on a Curated Web Service Registry (BioCatalogue).and 70 % of users chose services from services that recommended by our model besides the discovered ones by BioCatalogue.

Changes in contexts lead to QOS degrade. Continues adaptation mechanism and strategies are required to stay service based applications(SBA) in safe state. In this paper a framework for runtime adaptation in service based application isintroduced. It checks user requirements change continuously and dynamically adopts architecture model. Also it checks providers QOS attributes continuously and if adaptation requirement is triggered, runs service selection adaptation strategy to satisfy user preferences. Thusit is a context aware and automatically adaptable framework for SBA applications. Wehave implemented a fuzzy based system for web service selection unit. Due to ambiguity of context’s data and cross-cutting effects of quality of services, using fuzzy would result an optimised decision. Finally we illustrated that using of it has a good performance for web service based applications.

One of the main security issue is to secure web services from the malicious requesters. Since trust plays an important role in many kinds of human communication, it allows people to work under insecurity and with the risk of negative cost, many researchers have proposed different trust based web services access control model to prevent malicious requesters. In this literature review, various existing trust based web services access control model have been studied also investigated how the concept of a trust level is used in the access control policy of a service provider to allow service requester to access the web services.
