Microservices have become the de-facto software architecture for cloud-native applications. A contentious architectural decision in microservices is to compose them using choreography or orchestration. In choreography, every service works…

Regional planning processes and associated redevelopment projects can be complex due to the vast amount of diverse data involved. However, all of this data shares a common geographical reference, especially in the renaturation of former…

Microservice is a way of splitting the logic of an application into small blocks that can be run on different computing units and used by other applications. It has been successful for cloud applications and is now increasingly used for…

The agility inherent to today's business promotes the definition of software architectures where the business entities are decoupled into modules and/or services. However, there are advantages in having a rich domain model, where domain…

The Internet of Things (IoT) aims to connect everyday physical objects to the internet. These objects will produce a significant amount of data. The traditional cloud computing architecture aims to process data in the cloud. As a result, a…

Microservice architecture has become a dominant architectural style in the service-oriented software industry. Poor practices in the design and development of microservices are called microservice bad smells. In microservice bad smells…

Microservice architecture has transformed the way developers are building and deploying applications in the nowadays cloud computing centers. This new approach provides increased scalability, flexibility, manageability, and performance…

With the maturity of web services, containers, and cloud computing technologies, large services in traditional systems (e.g. the computation services of machine learning and artificial intelligence) are gradually being broken down into many…

Functional graphs (FGs) model the graph structures used to analyse the behaviour of functions from a discrete set to itself. In turn, such functions are used to study real complex phenomena evolving in time. As the systems involved can be…

Microservice Architecture (MSA) denotes an emerging architectural style for distributed and service-based systems whereby each microservice is highly cohesive and implements a single business capability. A microservice system consists of…

Microservice architectures promote small, independently developed services, but increase overall architectural complexity. It is crucial that developers understand the architecture and how changes to a service affect the overall system, but…

Handling online travel agents globally requires efficient and flexible software solution architectures. When it needs to handle thousands of agents and billions of clients data globally. Microservices architecture is used to break down a…

In the ever-evolving landscape of computing, the advent of edge and fog computing has revolutionized data processing by bringing it closer to end-users. While cloud computing offers numerous advantages, including mobility, flexibility and…

The information flows in serverless platforms are complex and non-conservative. This is a direct result of how independently deployed functions interact under the platform coarse-grained control mechanisms. To manage this complexity, we…

The paper describes a framework for multi-function system testing. Multi-function system testing is considered as fusion (or revelation) of clique-like structures. The following sets are considered: (i) subsystems (system parts or units /…

A large number of techniques for analyzing and optimizing mobile apps have emerged in the past decade. However, those techniques' components are notoriously difficult to extract and reuse outside their original tools. This paper introduces…

We propose a filtering feature selection framework that considers subsets of features as paths in a graph, where a node is a feature and an edge indicates pairwise (customizable) relations among features, dealing with relevance and…

In this paper we present a theoretical analysis of graph-based service composition in terms of its dependency with service discovery. Driven by this analysis we define a composition framework by means of integration with fine-grained I/O…

In this paper, we propose a graph classification approach for automatically determining whether to use a monolithic or a decomposition-based solution method. In this approach, an optimization problem is represented as a graph that captures…

The microservice software architecture is more scalable and efficient than its monolithic predecessor. Despite its increasing adoption, microservices might expose security concerns and issues that are distinct from those associated with…
