TLDR
The challenges of composing RESTful Web services are discussed and a formal model for describing individual Web services and automating the composition is proposed and demonstrated by applying it to a real-world RESTfulWeb service composition problem.Abstract:
Emerging as the popular choice for leading Internet companies to expose internal data and resources, Restful Web services are attracting increasing attention in the industry.While automating WSDL/SOAP based Web service composition has been extensively studied in the research community, automated RESTful Web service composition in the context of service-oriented architecture (SOA), to the best of our knowledge, is less explored. As an early paper addressing this problem, this paper discusses the challenges of composing RESTful Web services and proposes a formal model for describing individual Web services and automating the composition. It demonstrates our approach by applying it to a real-world RESTful Web service composition problem. This paper represents our initial efforts towards the problem of automated RESTful Web service composition.We are hoping that it will draw interests from the research community on Web services, and engage more researchers in this challenge.read more

Knowledge in Action: Logical Foundations for Specifying and Implementing Dynamical Systems
TL;DR: When I started out as a newly hatched PhD student, one of the first articles I read and understood was Ray Reiter’s classic article on default logic, and I became fascinated by both default logic and, more generally, non-monotonic logics.

RESTful service composition at a glance
TL;DR: A comprehensive set of RESTful composition approaches is surveyed, i.e., the most promising in their area, totaling 29 approaches, and two sets of features are proposed to analyze, characterize and compare such approaches: features inherent to SOAP services composition approaches and RESTful services composition features.

Automatic Dynamic Web Service Composition: A Survey and Problem Formalization
Peter Bartalos,Mária Bieliková +1 more
TL;DR: A problem formalization contributing to the formal definition of the pre-/post-conditions, with possible value restrictions, and their re- lation to the semantics of services is proposed.

TL;DR: This book shows how you can connect to the programmable web with the technologies you already use every day and harness the power of the Web for programmable applications: you just have to work with the Web instead of against it.
