Service-oriented computing: concepts, characteristics and directions

TLDR
This paper introduces an extended service oriented architecture that provides separate tiers for composing and coordinating services and for managing services in an open marketplace by employing grid services.
Abstract
Service-oriented computing (SOC) is the computing paradigm that utilizes services as fundamental elements for developing applications/solutions. To build the service model, SOC relies on the service oriented architecture (SOA), which is a way of reorganizing software applications and infrastructure into a set of interacting services. However, the basic SOA does not address overarching concerns such as management, service orchestration, service transaction management and coordination, security, and other concerns that apply to all components in a service architecture. In this paper we introduce an extended service oriented architecture that provides separate tiers for composing and coordinating services and for managing services in an open marketplace by employing grid services.

Digital ecosystems: a distributed service oriented approach for business transactions

TL;DR: This thesis presents a model that aims to support business activities conducted through a network of collaborations that generates value in different, mutually beneficial, ways for the participating organisations and proposes a practical model for the theoretical representation of Digital Ecosystems, which supports four properties of `Interaction', `Balance', `Loose Coupling' and `Self-organisation'.

Organizing scenario-related information and controlling access thereto

TL;DR: In this paper, a mechanism for organizing scenario solution-related information based upon a user's locality is presented, where a collection of metadata is created based upon scenario solutions executed by a user and/or enablers acquired by the user during scenario solution execution.

Using naming tendencies to syntactically link web service messages

TL;DR: This work investigates the nature of message definitions by analyzing real, fully-operational web services currently available on the Internet and proposes an enhanced syntactical method that can facilitate semantic processing by classifying web services by their message names as a first step.

Business process execution language for web services

TL;DR: This book focuses on executable processes and comes back to abstract processes in Chapter 4, which can be used to replace sets of rules usually expressed in natural language, which is often ambiguous.

Grid services for distributed system integration

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the nature of the services that respond to protocol messages and propose a set of services that can be aggregated in various ways to meet the needs of virtual organizations, which themselves can be defined by the services they operate and share.

Web Services Coordination (WS- Coordination)

TL;DR: This specification describes an extensible framework for providing protocols that coordinate the actions of distributed applications, used to support a number of applications, including those that need to reach consistent agreement on the outcome of distributed transactions.

Grid Service Specification

TL;DR: Technical details are provided, providing a full specification of the behaviors and Web Service Definition Language (WSDL) interfaces that define a Grid service.

Design Methodology for Web Services and Business Processes

TL;DR: This paper presents a design methodology for web services and business processes and discusses how business process should be described so that services can be properly identified and provide strategies and principles regarding functional and non-functional aspects of web service design.
