Abstract

With an increased deployment of new software services, reusing existing ones as building blocks to create new service mashups offers flexibility to the developer and accelerates the design process. In this way businesses are able to create value at reduced development time and cost. In order to allow for the automation of this emerging engineering methodology the paper presents a framework for the construction of new applications without the intervention of the ICT department. This framework offers the needed support through the use of planning algorithms automatically combining semantically enriched services into new mashups. The developed algorithms are optimized with runtime adaptation to changing user-context taking fully into account the provided quality of service parameters of the available building blocks. The enrichment of the available business services with semantics, reasoning, and at-runtime composition are evaluated by means of a framework providing a management interface for an e-shop application.
