Abstract:
With the broad adoption of service-orientation for the realization of business applications and their provisioning and usage over cloud infrastructures, the topology of the resulting service networks is becoming extremely complex. Due to the composition of services for value-added business capabilities and the reusability of a service in multiple compositions, the execution of one service often depends on other services and changes in its provisioning can affect the health of large parts of the service network. The lack of insight on the relationships between the network components makes the m

Abstract:
A new method is proposed to automatically generate the network control specifications necessary for executing services in a network from communications service specifications by using a knowledge of virtual resource that expresses logical functions in a network. Because these communication service specifications are described by observable terminal behaviors, the communication service specifications can be described without detailed knowledge of the network. The conventional stepwise description for network control specifications is manually performed for each network architecture. Then an exp

A model was developed for network design of a shipping service for large-scale intermodal liners that captured essential practical issues, including consistency with current services, slot purchasing, inland and maritime transportation, multiple-type containers, and origin-to-destination transit time.

Laden container routing in the inland transportation network was combined with the maritime network by defining a set of candidate export and import ports. Empty container flow is

Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) are the only cost-effective networks that support seamless connectivity, wide area network (WAN) coverage, and mobility features. However, the rapid increase in the number of users on these networks has brought an upsurge in competition for available resources and services. Consequently, factors such as link congestion, data collisions, link interferences, etc. are likely to occur during service discovery on these networks. This further degrades their quality of service (QoS). Therefore, the quick and timely discovery of these services becomes an essential paramet

In such context, this paper explores the planning of post-disaster operations on a network following a hazardous event on one of the network’s nodes.

Abstract:
Tabu Search Algorithm for Survivable Network Design Problem with Simultaneous Unicast and Anycast FlowsIn this work we focus on the problem of survivable network design for simultaneous unicast and anycast flows. This problem follows from the growing popularity of network services applying the anycast paradigm. The anycasting is defined as one-to-one-of-many transmission and is applied in Domain Name Service (DNS), peer-to-peer (P2P) systems, Content Delivery Networks (CDN). In this work we formulate two models that enables joint optimization of network capacity, working and backup connections

Abstract:
As the digitization is integrated into daily life, media including video and audio are heavily transferred over the Internet nowadays. Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP), the most popular and mature technology, becomes the focus attracting many researches and investments. However, most of the existing studies focused on a one-to-one communication model in a homogeneous network, instead of one-to-many broadcasting model among diverse embedded devices in a heterogeneous network. In this paper, we present the implementation of a VoIP broadcasting service on the open source—Linphone—in a heteroge

Abstract Cloud Manufacturing (CMfg) is an emerging networked manufacturing paradigm and service-oriented manufacturing model, in which distributed manufacturing resources are made available by providers according to consumers’ requirements as on-demand manufacturing services via networks (manufacturing clouds) and cloud manufacturing service platforms. Considering the concept of cloud manufacturing and its operation principle, the paper designs and introduces new proposal of cloud manufacturing service platform architecture, including the following six layers: physical resources layer, soft re

One of the most important challenges facing humanity today is the design and development of more sustainable processes those that balance the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. The Sustainability as Service Science model (S^3) presents a novel perspective of the relationship between sustainability and services in the framework of service science by defining both sustainable services and sustainability as service and by describing the mutual relationship between sustainability and service.

Purpose Modern Enterprise Web Application development can exploit third-party software components, both internal and external to the enterprise, that provide access to huge and valuable data sets, tested by millions of users and often available as Web application programming interfaces (APIs). In this context, the developers have to select the right data services and might rely, to this purpose, on advanced techniques, based on functional and non-functional data service descriptive features. This paper focuses on this selection task where data service selection may be difficult because the dev

Fifth-generation (5G) communication technologies and artificial intelligence enable the design and deployment of sophisticated solutions for enhanced user experience and superior network-based service delivery. However, the performance of the systems offering 5G-based services depends on various factors. In this paper, we consider the case of the online railway ticketing system in China that serves the needs of hundreds of millions of people daily. This system’s online access rates vary over time, and fluctuations are experienced, affecting its overall dependability and service quality. We use

Abstract:
Designing a network of service centers involves a tradeoff between the revenue likely to be generated by providing a high level of service and the cost of operating the service network. The authors develop a procedure for determining the location and design strategies for new services using a modified maximal covering location-allocation model. The network optimization procedure relies on direct assessment of consumer sensitivity to distance and nondistance factors through conjoint analysis and simultaneously determines the network size, location of outlets, price, and operating characteristic

Compared with traditional freight transportation, intermodal freight transportation is more competitive which can combine the advantages of different transportation modes. As a consequence, operational research on intermodal freight transportation has received more attention and developed rapidly, but it is still a young research field. In this paper, a stochastic intermodal service network design problem is introduced in a sea-rail transportation system, which considers stochastic travel time, stochastic transfer time, and stochastic container demand.

Companies are now making their know-how and information available over the network using Web services. Business-to-Business collaboration through Web service interaction is now a necessary step to better satisfy user requests. The act of combining Web services to achieve a common goal - also known as Web service composition - is a complex issue that should be addressed. Many programming languages were developed to realize interaction between services, such as XLANG, WSFL, and BPEL. However, these languages are meant for the implementation and execution rather than providing a visual representa
