The Intelligent Systems Series comprises titles that present state of the art knowledge and the latest advances in intelligent systems. Its scope includes theoretical studies, design methods, and real-world implementations and applications. Service Science, Management, and Engineering presents the latest issues and development in service science. Both theory and applications issues are covered in this book, which integrates a variety of disciplines, including engineering, management, and information systems. These topics are each related to service science from various perspectives, and the book is supported throughout by applications and case studies that showcase best practice and provide insight and guidelines to assist in building successful service systems. Presents the latest research on service science, management and engineering, from both theory and applications perspectives Includes coverage of applications in high-growth sectors, along with real-world frameworks and design techniques Applications and case studies showcase best practices and provide insights and guidelines to those building and managing service systems
Demonstrates that the pre-Islamic Sahara was a more connected region than previously thought, with trade an essential linking element.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third Australasian Conference on Artificial Life and Computational Intelligence, ACALCI 2017, held in Geelong, VIC, Australia, in January/February 2017. The 32 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 47 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: artificial life and computational intelligence and optimization algorithms and applications.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed papers presented at five international workshops held in conjunction with the 5th International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing, ICSOC 2007, in Vienna, Austria, in September 2007. The five workshops were selected out of eight submissions. The volume contains papers presented at the First International Workshop on Web APIs and Services Mashups (Mashups 2007), the Workshop on Non-Functional Properties and Service Level Agreements in Service-Oriented Computing (NFPSLA-SOC 2007), the 2nd International Workshop on Business-Oriented Aspects Concerning Semantics and Methodologies in Service-Oriented Computing (SeMSoC 2007), the First International Workshop on Telecom Service-Oriented Architectures (TSOA 2007) and the Third International Workshop on Engineering Service-Oriented Applications (WESOA 2007). The papers offer a wide range of hot topics in service-oriented computing: development of mashups; management of non-functional properties and service level agreements; engineering approaches; semantic methodologies; and telecom services and service architectures.
This Three-Volume-Set constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Software Engineering and Computer Systems, ICSECS 2011, held in Kuantan, Malaysia, in June 2011.

The papers are organized in topical sections on software engineering; network; bioinformatics and e-health; biometrics technologies; Web engineering; neural network; parallel and distributed; e-learning; ontology; image processing; information and data management; engineering; software security; graphics and multimedia; databases; algorithms; signal processing; software design/testing; e- technology; ad hoc networks; social networks; software process modeling; miscellaneous topics in software engineering and computer systems.
"This book offers new and established perspectives on architectures, services and the resulting impact of emerging computing technologies, including investigation of practical and theoretical issues in the related fields of grid, cloud, and high performance computing"--Provided by publisher.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings and the doctoral symposium of the 12th International Conference on Web Engineering, ICWE 2012, held in Berlin, Germany, in July 2012. The volume contains four workshops and a doctoral consortium, each focusing on specific research issues that contribute to the main themes of the ICWE conference: MDWE 2012: Eighth International Workshop on Model-Driven and Agile Engineering for the Web, ComposableWeb 2012: Fourth International Workshop on Lightweight Integration on the Web, WeRE 2012: Third Workshop on the Web and Requirements Engineering, QWE 2012: Third International Workshop on Quality in Web Engineering.
Examines key technological innovations, knowledge transfer, connectivity and social meaning in the ancient and Medieval Sahara.
This book focuses on web service specification, search, composition, validation, resiliency, security and engineering, and discusses various service specification standards like WSDL, SAWSDL, WSMO and OWLS. The theory and associated algorithms for service specification verification are detailed using formal models like Petrinet, FSM and UML. The book also explores various approaches proposed for web service search and composition, highlighting input/output, parameter-based search, and selection of services based on both functional and non-functional parameters. In turn, it examines various types of composite web services and presents an overview of popular fault handling strategies for each of these types. Lastly, it discusses the standards used for implementing web service security on the basis of a case study, and introduces the Web Service Development Life Cycle (WSDLC), which defines co-operation between several industry partners to develop web services in a more structured way.
The book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Workshop on Distributed, High-Performance and Grid Computing in Computational Biology, GCCB 2006, held in Eilat, Israel in January 2007 in conjunction with the 5th European Conference on Computational Biology, ECCB 2006. The 13 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from many high quality submissions.
