Unlike other software’s the cloud instances does not provide a platform to predict a resource need in advance. The present system relays on a centralized resource allocation service running some ware in the cloud which periodically checks in some fashion, so the clients with resource need have to wait till its turn arrives. In our previous phase we had tried to decentralize the resource reallocation process using gossip protocol. Now in this phase we try to add more features to it so that the resource allocation is much better. We will be categorizing the different virtual environments based on their requirements like CPU or ram or storage space, etc. And we will make sure that the time taken to find out the eligible resource provider is reduced to the bare minimum. Based on the preference list collected by the machines requiring resources the gossip protocol will connect with the resource provider randomly to get the resource allocated.","PeriodicalId":39662,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Web Engineering and Technology","volume":"21 1","pages":"102-104"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83502483","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}

KINISIS is a graphical query language which is designed and implemented upon XQuery, using metaphors extracted from the European Road Traffic Act. We conducted a controlled experiment in order to assess users' performance, with respect to understanding and correctness, in developing queries in KINISIS and in XQuery. The findings, from the collected and statistically analysed data, showed that users performing on KINISIS had significantly better results comparing to those using XQuery. As an output of this study, is that a graphical XQuery language that is based on successful metaphors is more appropriate for novice users in XQuery technology, instead of textual XQuery.","PeriodicalId":39662,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Web Engineering and Technology","volume":"8 1","pages":"81-101"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJWET.2013.053335","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66704266","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 the Mobile Web Service (MWS) sphere, resource-constrained mobile terminals are used as both web service clients and providers (mobile hosts).

This paper addresses several technical aspects of the MWS provisioning domain, such as providing proper Quality of Service (QoS), especially in terms of security and reasonable scalability, and discovery aspects of the huge number of services possible with each mobile host that provides some services. The paper also discusses the features, components and realisation details of our enterprise service-bus-technology-based integration framework, which ensures QoS and discovery of MWS and helps in providing a bird's-eye view of the mobile enterprise.","PeriodicalId":39662,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Web Engineering and Technology","volume":"49 1","pages":"1-245"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83260878","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}

When children enter school they are expected to be able to participate in situations where this kind of language use is demanded. Some children may be well prepared for this, whereas others are not. In this article the design and first findings of the DASH-project (Development of Academic language in School and at Home) are presented, focusing on interactions between Dutch, Turkish and Moroccan-Berber mothers and their three-year-old children. To enable the analysis of the language use of mothers and children, a coding protocol was developed for this project. The coding protocol is based on functional grammar (Halliday) and focuses on characteristics of academic language (Schleppegrell). The aim of the first analyses presented here is to find out if the coding protocol makes it possible to find differences in the language use of mothers and young children - from different backgrounds and in different languages - related to academic language use. First the dimensions of field, mode and tenor in the coding protocol are being described, as well as the variables that are coded in each field. Subsequently, some preliminary analyses and findings are presented of the language data of two Turkish and two Moroccan-Berber mothers of different socio-economic backgrounds with their three-year old children on a picture task. The results of this analysis show differences in the language use of the mothers and children on each of the dimensions. These differences seem to be related to the concept of academic language in the sense that the language input of higher educated mothers show more characteristics of academic language than that of mothers with a lower educational level.","PeriodicalId":39662,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Web Engineering and Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59140602","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 order to ensure the quality and accuracy of map, the update on the source map must be reflected automatically to mobile devices. Due to the expensive communication cost and lack of hardware capacity of mobile devices, we should find a compromising solution between the transmission of an entire map and the transmission of only update logs to mobile devices. The transmission of the completely processed whole map results in an expensive communication cost, while simple transfer of update logs requires a large amount of processing to maintain geometric and topological consistency between multiple LODs(Level of Details). In this paper, we first propose a framework of update mechanism in mobile environments where the map data is stored on each mobile device. This framework provides an efficient strategy for processing an update and its propagation to multiple LODs without an expensive cost of communication and large amount of processing at mobile devices. Secondly, several methods are introduced to maintain topological consistency between LODs depending on the type of generalization operators. Finally, we propose an extended SVG(Simple Vector Graphics) to be used as a transfer format of update message to mobile devices.","PeriodicalId":39662,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Web Engineering and Technology","volume":"2 1","pages":"66-77"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77111695","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}
