This work falls in the areas of information retrieval and semantic web, and aims to improve the evaluation of web search tools. Indeed, the huge number of information on the web as well as the growth of new inexperienced users creates new…
In this paper we propose that recommendation systems (RSs) for multimedia services should be "QoS-aware", i.e., take into account the expected QoS with which a content can be delivered, to increase the user satisfaction. Network-aware…
Quality of Service (QoS) prediction is one of the most fundamental problems in service computing and personalized recommendation. In the problem, there is a set of users and services, each associated with a set of descriptive features.…
Quality of Service (QoS) is now regarded as a requirement for all networks in managing resources like bandwidth and avoidance of network impairments like packet loss, jitter, and delay. Media transfer or streaming would be virtually…
The Internet service provider industry is currently experiencing intense competition as companies strive to provide top-notch services to their customers. Providers are introducing cutting-edge technologies to enhance service quality,…
The semantic Web service community develops efforts to bring semantics to Web service descriptions and allow automatic discovery and composition. However, there is no widespread adoption of such descriptions yet, because semantically…
The vision of the Semantic Web (SW) is gradually unfolding and taking shape through a web of linked data, a part of which is built by capturing semantics stored in existing knowledge organization systems (KOS), subject metadata and resource…
Web service composition has been one of the most researched topics of the past decade. Novel methods of web service composition are being proposed in the literature include Semantics-based composition, WSDLbased composition. Although these…
Building around the idea of a large scale server infrastructure with a potentially large number of tailored resources, which are capable of interacting to facilitate the deployment, adaptation, and support of services, cloud computing needs…
The area of quality of service (QoS) in communications networks has been the target of research for already several decades with tens of thousands of published journal and conference papers. However, the practical introduction of QoS…
In this paper, we present the Gaussian process regression as the predictive model for Quality-of-Service (QoS) attributes in Web service systems. The goal is to predict performance of the execution system expressed as QoS attributes given…
Web services are basic functions of a software system to support the concept of service-oriented architecture. They are often composed together to provide added values, known as web service composition. Researchers often employ Evolutionary…
This article presents the top-level of an ontology categorizing and generalizing best practices and quality criteria or measures for Linked Data. It permits to compare these techniques and have a synthetic organized view of what can or…
A ranking is an ordered sequence of items, in which an item with higher ranking score is more preferred than the items with lower ranking scores. In many information systems, rankings are widely used to represent the preferences over a set…
Opportunistic computing is a paradigm for completely self-organised pervasive networks. Instead of relying only on fixed infrastructures as the cloud, users' devices act as service providers for each other. They use pairwise contacts to…
As cloud computing is increasingly transforming the information technology landscape, organizations and businesses are exhibiting strong interest in Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offerings that can help them increase business agility and…
The Internet is integral to modern life, influencing communication, business, and lifestyles globally. As dependence on Internet services grows, the demand for high-quality service delivery increases. Service providers must maintain high…
Automatic Web service composition is a research direction aimed to improve the process of aggregating multiple Web services to create some new, specific functionality. The use of semantics is required as the proper semantic model with…
Streaming platforms, like Netflix and YouTube, strive to offer high streaming quality (SQ), in terms of bitrate, delays, etc., to their users. Meanwhile, a significant share of content consumption of these platforms is heavily influenced by…
The growth of real world objects with embedded and globally networked sensors allows to consolidate the Internet of Things paradigm and increase the number of applications in the domains of ubiquitous and context-aware computing. The…
