Research results from industry-academic collaborative projects in service-oriented computing describe practical, achievable solutions. Service-Oriented Applications and Architectures (SOAs) have captured the interest of industry as a way to support business-to-business interaction, and the SOA market grew by $4.9 billion in 2005. SOAs and in particular service-oriented computing (SOC) represent a promising approach in the development of adaptive distributed systems. With SOC, applications can open themselves to services offered by third parties and accessed through standard, well-defined interfaces. The binding between the applications and the services can be, in this context, extremely loos...
Component-based software development is the next step after object-oriented programmingthatpromisesto reducecomplexityandimprovereusability.These advantages have also been identi?ed by the industry, and consequently, over the past years, a large number of component-based techniques and processes have been adopted in many of these organizations. A visible result of this is the number ofcomponentmodels thathavebeendevelopedandstandardized.These models de?ne how individual software components interact with each other and simplify the design process of software systems by allowing developers to choose from previously existing components. The development of component models is a ?rst step in the ...
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Rapid Integration of Software Engineering Techniques, RISE 2005. The book presents 19 revised full papers together with the abstract of a keynote paper. Among the topics addressed are modelling safety case evolution, practical approaches in model mapping, context-aware service composition, techniques for representing product line core assets for automation, formal development of reactive fault-tolerant systems, and more.
A foreword for the present workshop proceedings cannot be provided without first looking at the larger context of the AMI conference in which the workshops were organized. The AMI 2007 conference has roots in preceding events, but in many respects, AMI can be called a novel conference format and hence a premiere. Among the several aims that inspired and shaped this new conference format, the following two are particularly worth considering: (1) to provide a forum for the ambient intel- gence flavor of research on the Post-PC era of computer science, complementing the ubiquitous computing and pervasive computing flavors emphasized by alrea- existing conferences; (2) to offer an event that att...
This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Trust Management, held in Paris, France, during 23–26 May 2005. The conf- ence follows successful International Conferences in Crete in 2003 and Oxford in 2004. All conferences were organized by iTrust, which is a working group funded as a thematic network by the Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) unit of the Information Society Technologies (IST) program of the European Union. The purpose of the iTrust working group is to provide a forum for cro- disciplinary investigation of the applications of trust as a means of increasing security, building con?dence and facilitating collaboration in dynamic open s- tem...
This book presents 15 tutorial lectures by leading researchers given at the 11th edition of the International School on Formal Methods for the Design of Computer, Communication and Software Systems, SFM 2011, held in Bertinoro, Italy, in June 2011. SFM 2011 was devoted to formal methods for eternal networked software systems and covered several topics including formal foundations for the inter-operability of software systems, application-layer and middleware-layer dynamic connector synthesis, interaction behavior monitoring and learning, and quality assurance of connected systems. The school was held in collaboration with the researchers of the EU-funded projects CONNECT and ETERNALS. The papers are organized into six parts: (i) architecture and interoperability, (ii) formal foundations for connectors, (iii) connector synthesis, (iv) learning and monitoring, (v) dependability assurance, and (vi) trustworthy eternal systems via evolving software.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the ACM/IFIP/USENIX 7th International Middleware Conference 2006, held in Melbourne, Australia, in November/December 2006. The 21 revised full papers are organized in topical sections on performance, composition, management, publish/subscribe technology, databases, mobile and ubiquitous computing, security, and data mining techniques.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 9th International Joint Conference on Software Technologies, ICSOFT 2014, held in Vienna, Austria, in August 2014. The 15 revised full papers and 6 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 145 submissions. The papers focus on enterprise software technologies; software engineering and systems security; distributed systems; and software project management.
"This book presents the emerging fields of service intelligence and service science, positioning them as the most promising directions for the evolution of service computing, demonstrating the critical role such areas play in supporting service computing processes"--Provided by publisher.
This book contains the thoroughly refereed technical papers presented in six workshops collocated with the International Conference on Software Technologies: Applications and Foundations, STAF 2016, held in Vienna, Austria, in July 2016. The six workshops whose papers are included in this volume are: DataMod, GCM, HOFM, MELO, SEMS, and VeryComp. The 33 full and 3 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 53 submissions. They focus on practical and foundational advances in software technology covering a wide range of aspects including formal foundations of software technology, testing and formal analysis, graph transformations and model transformations, model driven engineering, and tools.
