It provides an approach to software development that system and application can be constructed by assembling reusable software building blocks, called services. The industries have adopted web services composition to generate new business applications or mission critical services. One of the most popular integration languages for web services composition is Web Services Business Process Execution Language (WS-BPEL). Although the individual service is usually functional correctly, however, several unexpected faults may occur during execution of composite web service. It is difficult to detect the original failure service because the faults may propagate, accumulate and spread. In this paper, we present a technique of Model-Based Testing (MBT) to enhance testing of interactions among the web services. The technique combines Extended Finite State Machine (EFSM) and UML sequence diagram to generate a test model, called EFSM-SeTM. We also defined various coverage criteria to generate valid test paths from EFSM-SeTM model for a better test coverage of all possible scenarios.","PeriodicalId":125572,"journal":{"name":"2013 Fifth International Conference on Service Science and Innovation","volume":"165 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114399745","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With this perspective, this research constructs a two-step research design. Firstly, a value measurement model is built for novel, musical and movie. With this model, this research uses the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and conducts an expert questionnaire survey to experiment the key value of consumers for each novel, musical and movie. The findings show the key value of these three creations and reveal that the major three gaps in value migration for consumers are sense, aesthetic, and historical value in turn for the cross-media production from novel to musical. As for cross-media production from musical to movie, the major three gaps in value migration for consumers are emotional value, marketing activities, and epistemic value in turn. This research also uses \"The Phantom of the Opera\" as a case study to see how these key values are implemented cross novel to musical and cross musical to movie, and also implements it to the cultural product design model.","PeriodicalId":125572,"journal":{"name":"2013 Fifth International Conference on Service Science and Innovation","volume":"137 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116042678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this perspective, we propose a model to forecast calls in long- and mid-term by ARIMA (Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average), and to size workforce in mid-term by integrating an Erlang model. Finally, we have developed a tool to forecast calls in a multi-agent multi-service call center.

The current study employs the self-determination theory to understand the dominant innate needs of customers in the context of cultural consumption.

In general, service experiences refer to the added value that customers gain when obtaining services, while service experience images are the overall impression, beliefs, and expectations that customers have toward the services. Therefore, this study aims to explore service experience images that are appropriate for the development of the local creative industry and to allow stakeholders (such as, residents and tourists, enterprises, and the government) to co-create value and reduce the risks and costs resulting from regional development. In this study, field studies focus on the community located between the Zhongshan and Shuanglian MRT Stations in Taipei, and community service experience images are collected through interactive adjective tool cards. Through focus group discussions with the stakeholders for the local development, this study has first discovered the sources, values, and co-creation development opportunities of service experience images. Secondly, the study found that service experience image is a co-creation of stakeholders in the community, so how to identify service experience images and dynamic shifts to effectively integrate the community's service content, personnel, and responses is crucial for the community in creative community development. Thirdly, service experience images will bring different stakeholders with different types of values, if an appropriate co-creating platform of service experience images can be established in the future. As a result, the stakeholders could efficiently and effectively engage in both defining and creating value, it would help reduce the costs and risks in the process.","PeriodicalId":125572,"journal":{"name":"2013 Fifth International Conference on Service Science and Innovation","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126691402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper proposes an evaluation scheme to investigate interactions between design features of a product and user facial characteristics. Glasses frames design is used as an example to illustrate how the scheme works. 3D scanning technology is applied to capture the facial features of users and reconstruct their 3D face models. Those models allow us to post-process individual facial feature without changing the others. Subjects respond to three affective measures: confidence, friendliness, and attractiveness, signified by the faces wearing the factorized glasses frames. The results show that changing certain design features indeed influences the impressions of the faces with varied facial characteristics. The proposed scheme facilitates design of products related to personal appearance.","PeriodicalId":125572,"journal":{"name":"2013 Fifth International Conference on Service Science and Innovation","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123506719","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
