Table 1 Service composition approaches comparison
From: A context-aware framework for dynamic composition of process fragments in the internet of services
Approaches | Customization and context-awareness | Openness | Flexibility |
|---|---|---|---|
Our approach | Runtime service composition in a dynamic context | Transparent handling of new services available at runtime | Structural changes in services functionalities and services unavailability |
Context-aware selection of services using semantic information, or context events to identify adaptation situations | Not addressed | Adaptation plans defined atdesign-time together with the relations with the goals they can satisfy or predefined adaptation points. | |
Not addressed | Syntax level service selection and composition at design-time | Not addressed | |
Semantic Knowledge to drive the service composition | Design-time services selection, binding and composition | Service Choreography evolution through adaptation to possible changes in the discovered services |
