Towards a Composition Framework for E›/M›Services

TL;DR: This paper proposes a framework to model users' location via a multiplicity of local and active service contexts, and shows how the MARS coordination middleware, implementing service contexts in terms of programmable tuple spaces, can be used to develop and deploy applications and M-services coherently with the above framework.

TL;DR: This paper presents an approach for the design and development of service-driven applications that leverages the traditional state chart diagrams of UML and advocates that services do not invoke each other.

TL;DR: This initiative on a new direction of research for bringing into the common fold context-aware computing and Web services-oriented computing to allow users to satisfy their needs regardless of their location and the resources that are considered in the performance of the services.

TL;DR: A multichannel model to carry information about m-services available within a given geographic area is defined and three techniques to enable efficient access to wireless channels are introduced, including B+ tree, signature indexing, and hashing.

TL;DR: The characteristics of service composition are explored, how it differs in fundamental ways from traditional issues surrounding workflow integration, data integration, and application integration are shown, and the solution for the challenging issues in service composition is outlined.

TL;DR: This paper discusses the concept of component in the framework of e-Service and e-Application design, where these services are based on legacy systems, and gives a precise definition of stateful and stateless components.

TL;DR: The paper discusses mobile services in the wireless world, which has its own features that make it different from the wired world and the use of software agents in addressing those features.
