Nowadays, the great benefits of cloud computing have dramatically increased the number of e-banking users. Hence, the competition in the banking industry has boosted and managers need to evaluate their branches on a regular basis. To this end, this study aims to evaluate cloud-based banking systems based on the Quality of Service (QoS) attributes using the Dynamic Network Data Envelopment Analy...

With the growing expansion of web services resources on the internet, more and more users come to appreciate the difficulty of searching self-gratification information from the mass information. This paper analyzes functional attributes and un-functional attributes of Web service resources, builds the mapping relationship between FQoS and QoS, and defines the index system structure of FQoS (Fun...

Quality of Services (QoS) management in compositions of services requires careful consideration of QoS characteristics of the services and effective QoS management in their execution. This paper describes an approach to implementation of QoS management in compositions of Web services in the context of Computational Quality Attributes and Service Level Agreements. Building on prior research work...

Service computing provides the capability of binding each service invocation in a composition to a service selected among the same function attributes but different QoS attributes to achieve a QoS goal. Hence, service selection approach plays a very important role in service composition. However existing approaches little considered the computation time. In this study, we propose a effective Qo...

In this paper, we present quality of service (QoS) metrics for various network applications based on human factors and technology attributes. The first term, human factors, addresses human perception of different kinds of media, such as conventional text, audio and video. The second term, technology attributes, represents the different technological aspects of these network applications, such a...

Web services have got popular for developing Service-Oriented Architectures recently. As several web services are available to execute the same function, Quality of Service (QoS) turns into a discriminative factor which is significantly considered in service selection and service composition approaches. In different approaches, monitoring of services is used for evaluating QoS attributes. Custo...

The aim of this review paper is to bring into light a potential area i.e., web services supply chains for research by analyzing the existing state of art in this. It is observed from the review process that there seems to be much less work done in the area of web service supply chains as compared to e-commerce and product oriented service supply chains. The service quality assurance models, end...

Dynamic reconfiguration has been widely recognized as an effective approach to deal with the increasing complexity of dynamically adaptive systems. One of the main challenges in such systems is to provide guarantees about the required runtime quality of service (QoS) attributes, such as performance, reliability, etc. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to make these systems able to monitor...

The Universal Description Discovery & Integration (UDDI) is a specification for XML registry that enables functionality-based publication and discovery of Web services. This paper presents a UDDI extension to support Quality of Service (QoS) management in the context of Business Process Management Systems (BPMSs). To allow service selection according to functional and nonfunctional requirements...

This particular outlook represents, in brief the recent & upcoming issues associated with QoS guarantee & mobility in communications. Moreover it also presents a brief context of QoS attributes & handling techniques thereby. Even more, it covers aspects of QoS fundamentals in deployment of mobility led approaches. There are different kinds of systems that facilitate different QoS attributes for...
