Esta dissertação de mestrado aborda um estudo sobre a caracterização de cargas de trabalho para Web services por meio da análise de Documentos WSDL (Web Service Description Language). Esses documentos, que representam a interface para os serviços, foram obtidos na Web e seus conteúdos analisados estatisticamente. A metodologia utilizada para alcançar a caracterização desejada, constitui-se da coleta e análise dos dados de 1346 arquivos WSDL válidos. O resultado do estudo proposto nesta dissertação contribui para a avaliação de desempenho no que diz respeito a caracterizar os diversos aspectos das cargas de trabalho de Web services. Dentre os dados obtidos ressaltam-se as porcentagens da ocorrência de algumas características tais como o número de operações, tipos de Binding, quantidade de parâmetros de entrada e saída e tipos de dados mais utilizados. Para auxiliar na busca e avaliação das características das WSDLs uma nova ferramenta denominada WSDLAnalyzer é proposta e implementada / This MSc dissertation approaches a study on workload characterization for web services by means of the analysis of WSDL (Web Service Description Language) documents. These documents, that represent the interface to the services, were all obtained in the web and their contents were statistically analyzed. The methodology used to reach the desired characterization comprises the collection and analysis of 1346 WSDL valid files. The result of the study proposed in this dissertation contributes to the performance evaluation of web services in terms of characterizing the several aspects of the workloads. Among the data obtained, the percentage of occurrences of some features, such as the number of operations, the types of binding, the amount of input and output parameters and the more used data types, are highlighted. To support the search and evaluation of the WSDL features a new tool, named WSDLAnalyzer, is proposed and implemented

Magistrinis darbas turi išspręsti problemas iškylančias norint sujungti WSDL servisus veikiančius SOAP protokolu. Problemai išspręsti sukurta programinė įranga, kuri naudojant XSLT tranformacijas suvienodina servisų struktūras, pateikia vartotojui servisų projektavimo įrankį ir rezultate gražina programinį kodą. / This work is trying to solve the WSDL services mapping problem. To solve the problem was chosen develop the new system, because there is no such a decision that has been made or is currently under construction. The system will have a graphical user interface that will be generated by the WSDL description. The main requirement is that a developed system can generate the programing code by combining several existing e-service SOAP protocols.

The Internet became a standard way of exchanging business data between B2B and B2C applications and with this came the need for providing various services on the web instead of just static text and images. Web services are a new type of services offered via the web that aid in the creation of globally distributed applications. Web services are enhanced e-business applications that are easier to advertise and easier to discover on the Internet because of their flexibility and uniformity. In a real life scenario it is highly difficult to decide which J2EE application server to go for when deploying a enterprise web service. This thesis analyzes the various ways by which web services can be developed & deployed. Underlying protocols and crucial issues like EAI (enterprise application integration), asynchronous messaging, Registry tModel architecture etc have been considered in this research. This paper presents a report by analyzing what various J2EE application servers provide by doing a case study and by developing applications to test functionality.

Με την αυξανόμενη χρήση του Παγκόσμιου Ιστού και των Συστημάτων Προσανατολισμένων στις Υπηρεσίες , οι υπηρεσίες παγκόσμιου ιστού έχουν γίνει μίας ευρέως διαδεδομένη ως προς τη χρήση τεχνολογία. Οι αποθήκες υπηρεσιών παγκόσμιου ιστού αναπτύσσονται με ραγδαίους ρυθμούς , δημιουργώντας την ανάγκη ανάπτυξης προηγμένων εργαλείων για την οργάνωση και δεικτοδότησή τους. Η ομαδοποίηση των υπηρεσιών παγκόσμιου ιστού, οι οποίες συνήθως αναπαρίστανται από έγγραφα Γλώσσας Περιγραφής Υπηρεσιών Παγκόσμιου Ιστού (Web Service Description Language - WSDL) , καθιστά τις μηχανές αναζήτησης υπηρεσιών παγκόσμιου ιστού αλλά και τους χρήστες ικανούς να οργανώνουν και να επεξεργάζονται μεγάλες αποθήκες υπηρεσιών σε ομάδες με παρόμοια λειτουργικότητα και χαρακτηριστικά. Σε αυτή την εργασία προτείνουμε μια νέα τεχνική για την ομαδοποίηση των WSDL εγγράφων. Η προτεινόμενη μέθοδος θεωρεί τις υπηρεσίες παγκόσμιου ιστού ως κατηγορικά δεδομένα όπου κάθε υπηρεσία περιγράφεται από ένα σύνολο τιμών που εξάγονται από το περιεχόμενο και τη δομή του αντίστοιχου αρχείου περιγραφής και ως μέτρο ποιότητας της ομαδοποίησης ορίζεται η αμοιβαία πληροφορία μεταξύ των ομάδων και των τιμών τους. Περιγράφουμε τον τρόπο με τον οποίο οι υπηρεσίες παγκόσμιου ιστού αναπαρίστανται ως κατηγορικά δεδομένα και ομαδοποιούνται, χρησιμοποιώντας τον αλγόριθμο ομαδοποίησης κατηγορικών δεδομένων LIMBO , ελαχιστοποιώντας συγχρόνως την απώλεια πληροφορίας στις τιμές που εξάγονται από τα γνωρίσματα. Κατά την πειραματική αξιολόγηση , η δική μας προσέγγιση υπερέχει σε απόδοση F-Measure τις τεχνικές που χρησιμοποιούν εναλλακτικές μετρικές ομοιότητας και μεθόδους για την ομαδοποίηση WSDL εγγράφων. / With the increasing use of web and Service Oriented Systems, web-services have become a widely adopted technology. Web services repositories are growing fast, creating the need for advanced tools for organizing and indexing them. Clustering web services, usually represented by Web Service Description Language (WSDL) documents, enables the web service search engines and users to organize and process large web service repositories in groups with similar functionality and characteristics. In this paper, we propose a novel technique of clustering WSDL documents. The proposed method considers web services as categorical data and each service is described by a set of values extracted from the content and structure of its description file and as quality measure of clustering is defined the mutual information of the clusters and their values. We describe the way to represent web services as categorical data and how to cluster them by using LIMBO algorithm, minimizing at the same time the information loss in features values. In experimental evaluation, our approach outperforms in terms of F-Measure the approaches which use alternative similarity measures and methods for clustering WSDL documents.

A Engenharia de Software tem desenvolvido técnicas e métodos para apoiar o desenvolvimento de software confiável, flexível, com baixo custo de desenvolvimento e fácil manutenção. A avaliação da manutenibilidade contribui para fornecer meios para produzir software com alta qualidade. Este trabalho apresenta um experimento controlado para avaliar a manutenibilidade entre as abordagens de web services: RESTful e SOAP-WSDL. Esta avaliação foi conduzida usando 3 programas implementados na linguagem de programação Java e com a mesma arquitetura. Com base na arquitetura projetada, os web services desenvolvidos foram utilizados como objetos em estudos de caso, possibilitando avaliar e comparar a sua manutenibilidade. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram relações entre as informações sobre o custo e a qualidade dos serviços web, que contribuíram para esclarecer os critérios para a obtenção de uma boa relação entre o custo da manutenção e a evolução dos serviços web. Para concluir, os resultados indica que os web services RESTful são mais manuteníveis do lado do servidor, e os web services SOAP-WSDL são mais manuteníveis do lado do cliente. Os estudos realizados no experimento controlado são promissores e podem auxiliar na redução de custo na manutenção dos serviços web, melhorando dessa forma a qualidade do software no geral / Software Engineering has developed techniques and methods to support the development of reliable software, exible, low development cost and easy maintenance. The evaluation of maintainability contributes in this direction, providing the means to produce software with high quality. This paper presents an controlled experiment to evaluate the maintainability between the approaches of web services: RESTful and SOAP-WSDL. This evaluation was conducted using four programs implemented in the Java programming language, using the same architecture. Based on the designed architecture, Web services were developed as objects used in case studies, allowing to evaluate and compare its maintainability. The results showed relationships between the information on the cost and quality of web services, which contributed to clarify the criteria for obtaining a good relationship between the cost of maintenance and evolution of web services. In conclusion, the results indicate the RESTful web services are more maintainable server side in contrast to the SOAP-WSDL web services are more maintainable client side. Studies in controlled experiments are promising and may help reduce the maintenance cost of web services, thus improving overall software quality

In addition to storing 70-75% of their data and business logic in legacy mainframe systems, global corporations have countless custom applications and off-the-shelf ERP products residing within their networks. Increasing competition and shrinking budgets have left managers scouring for innovative, cost-effective methods to maximize the potential of these enormous sunk costs. There is, as a result, an overwhelming need to not only web enable these existing legacy assets in order to quickly and cost-effectively deliver data to both customers and business partners alike, but also to amalgamate these disparate systems into a unified, homogeneous, real-time enterprise. Integration efforts to date, focused predominantly on the development of proprietary point-to-point adapters, have unfortunately proven to be a daunting task with countless failed projects and losses in the millions. The advent of XML web services does, however, have the potential to revolutionize existing integration strategies; the cost savings and ease of implementation associated with wrapping virtually all systems, past, present and future, with standardized, code-independent, data-centric interfaces is truly astounding. As the future success of this platform is, however, strictly dependent upon the interoperability of its endpoints, we have proposed several fundamental amendments to the existing flawed WSDL specification. A generic reference architecture, leveraging both this improved web services model as well as established component middleware technologies, is then proposed for the web enablement of legacy assets on an enterprise scale. In order to ensure the adoption of this methodology, a toolkit designed to automate the transformation has also been devised. This new paradigm will not only allow information to flow freely from deep within the enterprise, but will ultimately serve as the cornerstone of a new generation of enterprise integration solutions.
