This simple approach adopts one-way communication model in which information is always transferred in a single direction from server-side to client-side. However, for better support of disaster warning and rescue, the system is supposed to leverage informative content by producing user-context dependent information. Mobile computing devices are portable and equipped with heterogeneous sensors and are able to provide many information collected by these sensors. With the collected information, the disaster management system can instruct the users to get away from the disaster. To achieve this idea, the system requires lots of computing power to customize information to meet demands of large-numbers of users, therefore, cloud computing is the key technology that contributes to the idea implementation. In this work, we propose two important features: (1) context-aware transmission policy which controls how to transmit data efficiently according to data priority, battery level and network data rate; (2) an architecture that supports the model of mobile interactive applications in which clients and servers can interact with each other in an autonomic manner.","PeriodicalId":298564,"journal":{"name":"2012 Fifth IEEE International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing and Applications (SOCA)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130654405","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}

Business transactions are one means to represent business goals and requirements. A business transaction is typically implemented by a choreography of different parties contributing to the accomplishment of a common agreement. To meet the constantly changing requirements for all parties in a business transaction choreographies often have to be adapted (e.g. based on the capabilities of different execution environments). The resulting challenge is that the execution state of a choreography executed on several locations has to be propagated to the business analyst to enable monitoring of the (adapted) business transaction. For this purpose we introduce a meta-model and state model of business transactions. Based on these models, we introduce a two-stage monitoring approach involving state propagation of the execution status of the adapted choreography to the original choreography and from there to the business transaction.","PeriodicalId":298564,"journal":{"name":"2012 Fifth IEEE International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing and Applications (SOCA)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126510948","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 paper, we discuss an approach based on the complex event processing paradigm, which allows application developers to specify and monitor high-level application performance metrics. We use the case of a Web 2.0 sentiment analysis application to illustrate the limitations we currently experience with regard to cloud monitoring, and show how our approach allows for more expressive definitions of monitored metrics. Furthermore, we indicate how the higher-level metrics produced by our approach can be used to increase application elasticity in an existing cloud middleware.","PeriodicalId":298564,"journal":{"name":"2012 Fifth IEEE International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing and Applications (SOCA)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125715617","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}

Although, while these services are key in providing access to data as well as a variety of functionality, often their full potential remains yet to be fully exploited. Due to the different standards used to implement and expose Web services, it is usually cumbersome for developers to reuse them within third-party applications. In this paper, we present Service Graph Base, a unified graph-based platform for representing and manipulating service artifacts. It allows professional developers to add service knowledge to a graph base, which can be done either automatically or manually. By adopting the language-neutral RDF-based Graph Model and developing a uniformly-interfaced service editor for service native artifacts extraction, services are represented as RDF graphs in Service Graph Base. Once they are in the graph base, common SPARQL queries can be used to provide intelligent exploration over the base, thereby providing a unified approach regardless of the actual service type. In our work, we have harvested 4,925 Yahoo! pipes and 300 WSDLs for service artifacts extraction and service query. Experiments showed that 99.35% Yahoo! pipes and 100% WSDLs were successfully represented as RDF graphs.","PeriodicalId":298564,"journal":{"name":"2012 Fifth IEEE International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing and Applications (SOCA)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133928282","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}
