With the increasing number of services published on the Web, it is useful to derive desirable service execution plans by identifying relevant and reliable services via an intelligent and automated recommendation process. Different from other proposals, this paper proposes to exploit time-dependant relationships among web services and their quality of service to make better recommendations. We employ time-aware Bayesian networks to reveal time dependency relationships for quality of service from service logs. Service selection is then guided using the latest time-step quality of service of related services. The shortlisted services can be further evaluated by business social trust paths to identify their trustworthiness. Our experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed service ranking method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
