Service Composition refers to the construction of complex services with the help of more primitive and easily executable services or components. With the proliferation of wireless communication and the mobile Internet, the demand for mobile data services has increased. In addition the recent spurt of eservices and m-services has increased the importance of service composition. We envisage service composition to play a crucial role in providing mobile devices access to complex services. The basis for our proposed approach is to virtualize the individual system resources as services that can be described, discovered and dynamically configured at runtime to execute an application. The paper discuss a novel paradigm which integrates mobile devices into the traditional grid, with the capability for composition of services. To accomplish such a global service composition in the new model we propose to add functional layers over the already proposed Anonymous Remote Mobile Cluster Computing model. The idea behind such middleware is to use the available resources efficiently and to hide the complexity inherent in managing heterogeneous services. This paper describes the unique capabilities of the proposed middleware and gives the layered view of the proposed architecture.

RTnet is a distributed real-time network protocol, to be used on fully-connected local area networks with a broadcast capability. It supports on-the-fly addition and removal of network nodes, resource-lavish and resource-lean devices, streaming real-time and regular non-realtime traffic. It allows the use of standard real-time scheduling paradigms to control network traffic, allows dynamic scheduling and is flexible in stream handling. The design is presented, together with measurement results of an experiment with an implementation on top of Ethernet

Business process modeling (BPM) is one of the key factors in defining service-oriented solutions for business collaborations. Like in traditional software engineering there is a need for adaptable methodologies to develop information and communication technology (ICT) systems supporting collaborative business processes. In this work we introduce a categorization for the classification of modeling languages and approaches used to model collaborative business processes. Considering an example, we show how the classification of modeling languages and approaches facilitates the development of methodologies for collaborative business processes.

One substantial element in the UMTS radio network planning process is the topology planning that identifies the node B sites and evaluates if the coverage and capacity requirements are met. The selection of the optimal sites is an iterative process of subsequently changing the network configuration and evaluating its quality. The latter task is commonly performed by quite time-consuming Monte Carlo simulations. In this paper we present an analytic method to determine the coverage area of a WCDMA network. This method yields slightly less accurate results in a considerably shorter time compared to a Monte Carlo simulation. Consequently, it should be used at the beginning of the planning process for a fast selection of cell sites. When a suitable solution is found, Monte Carlo or dynamic simulations should be used to validate the fine tuning of the site configuration. Although a lot of research focuses on the analytic modelling of WCDMA, few studies consider general WCDMA networks with arbitrary cell layout, spatial traffic distribution, service mix, and propagation losses. That however, is the prerequisite that makes an analytic model actually applicable in the planning process. We demonstrate the general applicability of our method by studying the impact of the network load and the shadow fading constant on the coverage area of an example network with irregular node B layout, heterogeneous spatial traffic distribution, and multiple services.

The current generation of P2P networks is intended to provide cost-effective alternatives to the traditional client-server architecture. The main goal is to store and retrieve data in a decentralized manner. The challenge in doing so consists in creating a stable overlay network that allows for fast and efficient searches. In this paper we consider the Chord P2P algorithm in this context and analyze its stability and efficiency with stochastic methods. We present realistic probabilities for a disconnection and investigate the corresponding scalability.

The grid resource management mainly concerns with provision of the grid resources on-demand. Grid resources are heterogeneous in nature, distributed under multiple trust domains and controlled by their local management systems. In order to provide a grid level smart and robust resource management that shields the grid middleware complexities, we need a better control over grid resources. A mechanism for the provision of service level agreement (SLA) between resource requester and provider could leads us to achieve this goal. Advanced reservation is a promise by the system that a certain resource capability would be available some time in future. In this paper we propose a distributed system for advanced reservation and co-allocation of the grid resources in which clients can negotiate with resource provider for the better compromise between application requirements and resource capabilities

Designing components and composing them into an architecture inherently involves describing their behavior. The classical software engineering approach to specifying requirements for large-scale components is to start with use cases. However, employing use cases to component architectures triggers the need of (i) assembling the behavior specified by several use cases, (ii) composing the behavior of communicating entities, and (iii) reasoning on consistency of the composed behavior. Applying a modeling language, such as UML, while dealing with these issues is desirable. Based on the composite structures framework, the emerging standard UML 2.0 defines a hierarchical component model;here, behavior of components may be specified with use cases. UML 2.0 provides four behavior specification mechanisms. The key goal of this paper is to evaluate whether and how these behavior specification mechanisms address the issues above. We show that only Interactions implicitly allow for addressing all of them.
