Addressing runtime uncertainties in Machine Learning-Enabled Systems (MLS) is crucial for maintaining Quality of Service (QoS). The Machine Learning Model Balancer is a concept that addresses these uncertainties by facilitating dynamic ML model switching,...

Software, hardware, data, and computing power can be abstracted and encapsulated as services authorised to users in a paid or free manner for on demand deployment. Service composition combines multiple existing services in a certain logical order to ...

In industry, RESTful APIs are widely used to build modern Cloud Applications. Testing them is challenging, because not only do they rely on network communications, but also they deal with external services like databases. Therefore, there has been a large ...

In recent years, massive services that provide similar functions continue to emerge. Since services sensitive to latency and throughput are often expected to have high Quality of Service (QoS), how to accurately predict QoS has become a ...

The research community has developed numerous tools for solving verification problems, but we are missing a common web interface for executing them. This means, users have to commit to install and execute each new tool (version) on their local ...

HHVM is commonly developed for large online web services, yet there remains much room for optimizing HHVM performance. This paper discusses challenges and techniques in optimizing HHVM performance for Meta's web service. We begin by evaluating the ...

Automated programming assignment grading tools have become integral to CS courses at introductory as well as advanced levels. However such tools have their own custom approaches to setting up assignments and describing how solutions should be tested, ...

In recent years, as more services become available on the internet, selecting the best quality services from a group of similar web services and ensuring their authenticity remains a challenge. This paper proposes a blockchain-based service selection ...

Mashup refers to a sort of web application developed by reusing or combining web API services, which are very popular software components for building distributed applications. As the number of open web APIs increases, to find suitable web APIs for Mashup ...

Enabled by recent improvements in generation methodologies, DeepFakes have become mainstream due to their increasingly better visual quality, the increase in easy-to-use generation tools and the rapid dissemination through social media. This fact poses ...

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the interconnection between the internet and objects, places and physical environments. These objects can exchange information and digital data between the real world and the Internet. The ubiquitous connectivity provided ...

Reliability evaluation of service-oriented computing against massive stresses of end users imputes greater emphasis on adaptability of different hosting techniques. As such, we propose to study the failure and reliability aspects of multi service-based ...

The article describes an approach to build a search index for fuzzy objects recognition in scientific and technical papers. A fuzzy object is explained as an entity described by some physical parameters. A physical parameter consists of two parts: ...

Due to the wide spread use of web-based services, there is competition among service providers to attract the highest number of users either by the competitive pricing of the services, by performance of the services, or both. In this paper, we address ...

Web services use protocols and middleware mechanisms to offer interfaces that enable the interoperability of heterogeneous components. Interface definition languages are used to describe service interfaces derived from system requirements and from ...

With the development of cloud computing and the advent of the Web 2.0 era, composing a set of Web services as a service process is becoming a common practice to provide more functional services. However, a service process involves multiple service ...

We focus in our research on the annotative activity of learner because annotation practice is very common and omnipresent. While reading, learner usually uses comments, highlights, circles sections and posts it to annotate the consulted resources. So, ...

Automated system test generation for web/enterprise systems requires either a sequence of actions on a GUI (e.g., clicking on HTML links and form buttons) or direct HTTP calls when dealing with web services (e.g., REST and SOAP). When doing white-box ...

Web services often impose constraints that restrict the way in which two or more input parameters can be combined to form valid calls to the service, i.e. inter-parameter dependencies. Current web API specification languages like the OpenAPI ...

The web services are from different sources, heterogeneous, and of large volume. The user is in a crucial situation to select the best web services. The web service selection process aims to discovery the desired web services; as it allows to select the ...
