eSERL: Feature Interaction Management in Parlay/OSA using Composition Constraints and Configuration Rules
نویسندگان
چکیده
SERL is a language and framework for managing the triggering and execution of services in a single-user, single-network-component (SUSC) environment. We propose enhancements to SERL, dubbed eSERL, to allow for personalized customization of services by end-users who do not have expert knowledge of the services and of the environment, while guaranteeing, to a certain degree, that unwanted feature interactions will be avoided. SERL allows for such customization of service usage, but it does not consider the issue of providing the guarantee. Our approach involves validation of user-defined service configurations, specified in the form of rules, against constraints for service composition and interworking imposed by experts.

Service interaction manifest itself as an unexpected behaviour of multiple services used together either simultaneously or in sequence. The paper describes a policy based approach to web service interaction management. Parlay X web services for call control, mobility, user interaction and policy management are studied. Web service behaviour is described as a set of policy rules. Rules are gener...
متن کاملQuality of Service Management for the Virtual Home Environment
The Virtual Home Environment (VHE) concept poses important requirements on Quality of Service (QoS) management, which are not fully addressed by current OSA and Parlay frameworks. OSA/Parlay expose a limited amount of network information, on the one hand, whilst not allowing for the required level of QoS control, on the other hand. This paper elaborates on the QoS functionality required by the ...

The need for providing applications with practical, manageable access to feature-rich capabilities of telecommunications networks has resulted in standardization of the OSA/Parlay APIs and more recently the Parlay X Web Services. Connectivity Manager is an existing, ‘stable’ API for establishing QoS parameters in a network. However, it falls short as an interface to the expected requirements ba...
