Reliable Web service composition based on QoS dynamic prediction

摘要

Web service dynamic composition is a key technology for creating value-added services by composing available services and applications. With the rapid development of web service, cloud computing, big data and internet of things, more and more services with identical functionality and different Quality of Service (QoS) are available; moreover, QoS of Web services are highly dynamic, so, how to create composite Web services reliably and efficiently is still an open issue. For this problem, this paper proposes a reliable Web service composition method based on global QoS constraints decomposition and QoS dynamic prediction. The approach includes two critical phases: firstly, before service composition, global QoS constraints are decomposed into local constraints, and the problem of Web service dynamic composition is transformed to a local optimization problem; secondly, during the running time, optimal Web service is selected for the current abstract service based on predicted QoS values. Experiment results show that our approach can greatly enhance the reliability of composite Web service.
