This paper presents an optimization framework for finding efficient deployment mappings of replicated service components (to nodes), while accounting for multiple services simult...
The global scenario put together by communication networks determines new opportunities towards the realization of Internetbased distributed services in many complex and composite...
The No-Free-Lunch theorem is a fundamental result in the field of black-box function optimization. Recent work has shown that coevolution can exhibit free lunches. The question a...
Current service discovery and subscription are “provider-centric” indeed, which costs the consumers too many efforts and makes the wide spectrum of QoS hard to use. In this po...
