Web Service Composition Based on Qualitative Parameters Using Top-K Color Classification

Abstract


Service-oriented architecture is the key to run web services. It has been a promising solution for composing services. Given the increase and complexity of the users’ needs, atomic services will not be adequate in service-oriented systems. Thus, drawing on the ability to compose services, scholars are searching for an optimal composition with identical efficiency among web services. Of course, service composition involves attention to the users’ needs and adapting them to qualitative parameters as the non-performance requirements of the system during the composition. The composition of automatic services will be a useful technology in composing multiple atomic services; however, the present attempts do not bring about the favourable efficacy. Many methods have been proposed by the researchers for composition of automatic services. However, in this paper an effort has been made to ameliorate the defects by introducing changes in Top-K algorithm. In the proposed method, the concept of ‘color’ has been employed in the section dealing with service composition in order to discard the backtracking technique in Top-K algorithm and the objective is to increase efficacy in composing web services and improve the time in the execution of the composition process. The proposed method improves the rate and accuracy of algorithm execution by displaying the services using graphs and the implemented color. Compared to the existing methods, the evaluation of the recommended method indicates a drop in memory usage, an increase in the speed of algorithm execution and the achievement of optimal results in less time.
