Improving Web Service Discovery with Usage Data
Aliaksandr Birukou, Enrico Blanzieri, Vincenzo D'Andrea, Paolo Giorgini, Natallia Kokash, University of Trento, Italy

Abstract Web service discovery is a difficult and challenging activity that makes the development of service-based applications a time-consuming and still not widely practiced process. Descriptions of publicly available services are scarce and their quality isn't guaranteed. This article presents a recommendation system to help developers of service-based applications discover and select appropriate services. Given a task description, the system recommends service operations according to the history of decisions previously made for similar objectives. The system is developed using IC-Service, a domain-independent recommendation Web service based on the implicit culture theory of service developers. IC-Service automatically collects information about service usage. Experimental results show that the system can learn from experience and achieve fair precision in its recommendations. This article is part of a special focus on service-centric software systems.

Andiamo CarPooling

2007-10-25T15:26:00.000-07:00

Andiamo is a new Carpooling system developed for sharing your car with other -people who carry out your own route or seek a passage between those who make available their car.

It is a fully automated system in which supply and demand of passes are processed through virtual auction. Each user is represented by a virtual agent who handles part in the auction and, according to parameters set, competes with others for the post offered or requested for the passenger. In addition to a simple Web interface, Andiamo offers a chance to participate in the auctions through mobile phones. At auction completed, the outcome will notify the user with a reply message directly on the phone. More info at: http://andiamo.dit.unitn.it
