It is based in the technology of intelligent mobile agents and has five phases in its life cycle: User Modeling, Matchmaking, Negotiation, Contract Formation and Contract Fulfillment. The Matchmaking is the process in which agents that represent traders (buyers and sellers), that are interested in the exchange of economic values, are put in touch with their potential business counterparts. The enrichment of the matchmaking process is the main focus of this work. Nowadays in the ICS, the matchmaking process only matches simple services. Our contribution is to enrich the actual matchmaking process allowing the composition of services, that is, simple services can add its capacities and form complex services with the goal to return a greater number of positive responses. To do this, we use ontologies allied to AI planning techniques to provide the discovery of complementary services and the posterior composition of them to elaborate more complex services. / O ICS (Intelligent Commerce System), projeto atualmente em desenvolvimento no Laboratório de Sistemas Inteligentes (LSI) na Universidade Federal do Maranhão (UFMA) sob a orientação do Prof. Dr. Sofiane Labidi, é um projeto que tem como objetivo desenvolver um Sistema de Comércio Eletrônico, na categoria B2B, efetivamente Inteligente. Ele é baseado na tecnologia de agentes móveis inteligentes e possui cinco fases no seu ciclo de vida: Modelagem do Usuário, Matchmaking, Negociação, Formação de Contrato e Cumprimento do Contrato. O Matchmaking é o processo no qual agentes representando negociantes (compradores e vendedores), que possuem interesse na troca de valores econômicos, são colocados em contato com seus potenciais parceiros de negócios. O enriquecimento do processo de matchmaking é o foco principal deste trabalho. Atualmente no ICS o processo de matchmaking somente emparceira serviços simples. Nossa contribuição é enriquecer o processo de matching atualmente em uso no ICS permitindo a composição de serviços, ou seja, serviços simples somam suas capacidades e formam serviços complexos com a finalidade de retornar maior número de respostas positivas. Para isso utilizamos ontologias aliadas às técnicas de planejamento automático para proporcionar a descoberta de serviços complementares e posterior composição dos mesmos para elaboração de serviços mais complexos.

The development of a medical information system is done using MDA (Model Drive Architecture) in which the PIM (Platform Independent Model) is created with UML (Unified Modeling Language), and the PSMs (Platform Specific Model) is done according to Web Services Platforms. To implement this system, we devised meta model s for the Web Services, JWSDP (Java Web Services Developement Pack) and WSOracle. Thus, we provide definitions of transformation of UML for the Web Services, JWSDP and WSOracle. The development of the system puts in evidence the process of transformation of PIM for PSM used in MDA. / Neste trabalho, desenvolvemos um sistema de informação médica de auxílio no diagnóstico médico, baseado em uma abordagem orientada a modelos, no qual o sistema permite o compartilhamento de informações entre especialistas fisicamente dispersos. O desenvolvimento do sistema de informação médica foi feito usando MDA (Arquitetura Dirigida a Modelo) em que o PIM (Modelo Independente da Plataforma) foi feito conforme a UML (Linguagem de Modelagem Unificada), e os PSMs (Modelos Específico da Plataforma) conforme as Plataformas dos Web Services. Para implementar este sistema de informação médica, provemos metamodelos para os Web Services, JWSDP (Java Web Services Developer Pack) e WSOracle. Assim, provemos definições de transformação de UML para os Web Services, JWSDP e WSOracle. O desenvolvimento do sistema coloca em evidência o processo de transformação de PIM para PSM, utilizado em MDA.

In many cases, information security is vital a maintenance and continuity of the businesses. The organizations have used the Internet as one of the main points for rendering of services for other organizations as well as for their final users. We can cite some organizations such as Banks, Institutions of Education, Administrators of Credit cards and the Federal Government. The use of Security policies associated with a set of tools such as Firewall, Antivirus and IDS (Intrusion Detection System) have helped organizations to achieve some security and thus allowing the continuity of the businesses. On the other extremity of the rendering of services for organizations we have the final users. The necessity for effectiveness in computational security to the final users has increased in function of the considerable growth on the occurrence of attacks to this type of user. This problem creates a niche for the research in security directed to the final user. This work is motivated by the above problem. Our work consists of a proposal of a model and an implementation of a Remote IDS (Intrusion Detection System) using the technology of Multi-agent Systems, Web Services and MDA (Model-Driven Architecture). This model adapts and extends the NIDIA (Network Intrusion Detection System based on Intelligent Agents) to provide a remote IDS on the Internet. The purpose is that users that do not have a local IDS can use the services provided by a remote IDS (e.g. NIDIA). NIDIA is an IDS whose architecture consists of a set of cooperative agents. The Remote IDS functionalities are provided as a set of accessible services on the Internet through Web Services. The architecture of our IDS uses MDA to support metadata management such as profiles of configurations, profiles of users and profiles of services. The prototype of the proposed model and the tests demonstrate the viability of our solution. An illustrative example of the execution of the Remote IDS is presented. / No atual contexto da Internet, a segurança da informação constitui-se uma preocupação permanente. Em muitos casos, a segurança da informação é vital para a manutenção e continuidade dos negócios. As organizações têm usado a Internet como um dos principais pontos para a prestação de serviços para outras organizações assim como para seus usuários finais. Podemos citar algumas organizações como Bancos, Instituições de Ensino, Administradoras de Cartões de Crédito e o Governo Federal. O uso de Políticas de Segurança associado ao uso de um conjunto de ferramentas, como Firewall, Antivírus e IDS (Intrusion Detection System) tem apoiado as organizações no objetivo de manter a segurança e desta forma a continuidade dos negócios. Na outra extremidade da prestação de serviços pelas organizações temos os usuários finais. A necessidade por eficácia em segurança computacional aos usuários finais tem aumentado em função do crescimento considerável na ocorrência de ataques a este tipo de usuário. Este problema cria um nicho para a pesquisa em segurança voltada ao usuário final. Esta dissertação tem por motivação esse cenário, consistindo na proposta do modelo e a implementação de um IDS Remoto usando a tecnologia de Sistemas Multiagentes, Web services e MDA (Model-Driven Architecture). O modelo adapta e extende o NIDIA (Network Intrusion Detection System based on Intelligent Agents) para prover um IDS remoto na Internet. A proposta é que usuários que não têm um IDS local possam usar os serviços providos por nosso IDS Remoto. O NIDIA é um IDS cuja arquitetura consiste em um conjunto de agentes cooperativos. As funcionalidades do IDS Remoto são providas como um conjunto de serviços acessíveis na Internet através de Web services. O nosso modelo de IDS usa MDA para suportar o gerenciamento de metadados tais como profiles de configuração, profiles de usuários e profiles de serviços. A implementação do protótipo do modelo proposto e os testes realizados demonstram a viabilidade da solução. Desta forma, um exemplo ilustrativo do funcionamento do IDS Remoto é apresentado.

Sistemas computacionais são constituídos por componentes de hardware e software que podem eventualmente falhar. Por esse motivo, o mecanismo de transação sempre foi imprescindível para a construção de sistemas robustos. O suporte transacional para a tecnologia Web services foi definido em agosto de 2005, num conjunto de três especificações denominadas WS-Coordination, WS-AtomicTransaction e WS-BusinessActivity. Juntas, essas especificações definem um alicerce sobre o qual aplicações robustas baseadas em Web services podem ser construídas. Nesta dissertação realizamos um estudo sobre transações atômicas em ambientes Web services. Em particular, estendemos o gerenciador de transações presente no servidor de aplicações JBoss, de modo que ele passasse a comportar transações distribuídas envolvendo Web services. Além disso, avaliamos o desempenho desse gerenciador de transações quando ele emprega cada um dos seguintes mecanismos de chamada remota: Web services/SOAP, CORBA/IIOP e JBoss Remoting. Finalmente, realizamos experimentos de escalabilidade e interoperabilidade. / Computing systems consist of a multitude of hardware and software components that may fail. For this reason, the transaction mechanism has always been essential for the development of robust systems. Transactional support for the Web services technology was defined in August 2005, in a set of three specifications, namely WS-Coordination, WS-AtomicTransaction, and WS-BusinessActivity. Together, such specifications enable the development of robust Web services applications. In this dissertation we studied atomic transactions in the Web services realm. Particularly, we added Web services atomic transaction support to the existing JBoss application server transaction manager. Furthermore, we evaluated the performance of this transaction manager when it employs each of the following remote method invocation mechanisms: Web services/SOAP, CORBA/IIOP and JBoss Remoting. Finally, we performed scalability and interoperability experiments.

The thesis is aimed on construction of solar panel powered datalogger of environmental values. The thesis begins by research of commercial dataloggers. Then the concept of datalogger was created. Then the electronics of datalogger was designed. Datalogger is built as a system driven by microcontroller. The microcontroller reads data from sensors, writes data to memory card and sends data to Czech radiocommunications cloud by LoRa technology. Then the data are resend to MySQL database. Program for microcontroller was made in C language. Configuration of datalogger is done through USB interface by PC application which was created in C# language. For visualisation of measured data ASP.NET Core application was created.

Cette thèse a pour but l'enrichissement des méthodes supervisées d'analyse de données symboliques et l'extension de ce domaine aux données volumineuses, dites "Big Data". Nous proposons à cette fin une méthode supervisée nommée HistSyr. HistSyr convertit automatiquement les variables continues en histogrammes les plus discriminants pour les classes d'individus. Nous proposons également une nouvelle méthode d'arbres de décision symbolique, dite SyrTree. SyrTree accepte tous plusieurs types de variables explicatives et à expliquer pour construire l'arbre de décision symbolique. Enfin, nous étendons HistSyr aux Big Data, en définissant une méthode distribuée nommée CloudHistSyr. CloudHistSyr utilise Map/Reduce pour créer les histogrammes les plus discriminants pour des données trop volumineuses pour HistSyr. Nous avons testé CloudHistSyr sur Amazon Web Services (AWS). Nous démontrons la scalabilité et l’efficacité de notre méthode sur des données simulées et sur les données expérimentales. Nous concluons sur l’utilité de CloudHistSyr qui , grâce à ses résultats, permet l'étude de données massives en utilisant les méthodes d'analyse symboliques existantes. / This Thesis proposes new supervised methods for Symbolic Data Analysis (SDA) and extends this domain to Big Data. We start by creating a supervised method called HistSyr that converts automatically continuous variables to the most discriminant histograms for classes of individuals. We also propose a new method of symbolic decision trees that we call SyrTree. SyrTree accepts many types of inputs and target variables and can use all symbolic variables describing the target to construct the decision tree. Finally, we extend HistSyr to Big Data, by creating a distributed method called CloudHistSyr. Using the Map/Reduce framework, CloudHistSyr creates of the most discriminant histograms for data too big for HistSyr. We tested CloudHistSyr on Amazon Web Services. We show the efficiency of our method on simulated data and on actual car traffic data in Nantes. We conclude on overall utility of CloudHistSyr which, through its results, allows the study of massive data using existing symbolic analysis methods.

Das Ziel der Diplomarbeit bestand darin eine Testumgebung zur Orchestrierung von Geo Web Services aufzubauen. Dabei diente die Diplomarbeit "Orchestrierung von Web Services" von Jäger/Weidenhagen als Grundlage. Um ein Verständnis für dieses Gebiet zu bekommen, werden zu Beginn die Grundlagen betrachtet. Rechtliche Aspekte zum Thema Orchestrierung werden angegeben, um die Wichtigkeit des Themas zu unterstreichen. Eingängige Standards wie SOAP und WSDL werden in ihren Kernpunkten erläutert. Insbesondere bei SOAP wird näher darauf eingegangen. Neben den OWS besteht auch die Möglichkeit Geo-Datenbanken in Diensteketten einfließen zu lassen. Dafür werden exemplarisch Dienste aufgesetzt, die dies ermöglichen. Weiterhin werden die Benutzerschnittstellen von Web Services (und auch Diensteketten) untersucht. Die Option eines Clients mittels Scriptsprachen wird beschrieben. Dabei erwies sich PHP am geeignetsten. Auf diese Weise kann für jede Dienstekette eine dynamische Webseite gestaltet werden, die eine graphische Schnittstelle für den Nutzer bietet.

In this dissertation, the existing methods for the recognition, propagation and improvement of quality metrics in service-oriented architectures are systematically included in methods related to these increased requirements. The work delivers two scientific contributions. The first one encompasses a concept for the incremental improvement of quality of services via the use of runtime mechanisms for the dynamic description and rating of non-functional properties. The second one carries a definition of an abstract interplay of architecture patterns and processes for the contractually safeguarded guarantee of quality of service properties in service ecosystems in the form of a reference architecture.:1 Einleitung 1.1 Problemdefinition 1.2 Wissenschaftliche Beiträge der Dissertation 1.3 Aufbau der Arbeit 2 Grundlagen und Verwandte Arbeiten 2.1 Dienstbeschreibungen und Dienstnutzungsverträge 2.2 Qualitätsbezogene Prozesse in Dienstumgebungen 2.3 Klassifikation und Struktur von NFE 2.4 Dienst-, Datenqualität und Metaqualität 2.5 Dienstumgebungen 3 Methodik zur Qualitätsverbesserung 3.1 Inkrementelle Qualitätsverbesserung durch Abgleichverfahren 3.2 CPEM - Ein Modell für die Ausdrucksstärke von NFE 3.3 Metaqualität von Diensten 3.4 Verfahren zur inkrementellen Qualitätsverbesserung 3.5 Einbindung der Verfahren in IoS-Plattformen 4 Plattform für das Internet der Dienste 4.1 Konzeption der Architektur 4.2 Umsetzung der Plattformdienste und Komponenten 4.3 Integrierte Architektur und Derivate 4.4 Umsetzung und Integration der SMQ-Erweiterungen 5 Validierung von Methodik und Plattform 5.1 Anforderungen an die Validierung 5.2 Experimentierumfeld für die Validierung 5.3 Experimentelle Abläufe und Ergebnisse 5.4 Auswertung des Experiments 6 Zusammenfassung A Ausgewählte Publikationen B Experimentierumgebung

Die Konzepte zur Erstellung von Software-Produktlinien dienen der ingenieurmäßigen, unternehmensinternen Wiederverwendung existierender Software-Artefakte. Existierende Ansätze nutzen von Hand erstellte und gewartete Kompositionsprogramme zum Assemblieren der Produkte entsprechend einer Variantenauswahl. Der Einsatz einer automatischen Planungskomponente sowie eines einfachen, erweiterbaren Komponenten-Meta-Modells hilft dabei, die dabei anfallenden Daten computergestützt zu verarbeiten. Die Integration beider Konzepte zu einem hybriden Ansatz ermöglicht die Neuerstellung von Produkten, die nicht von Anfang an als Produktlinie konzipiert sind, ohne eine spätere Umarbeitung unter Nutzung der automatischen Planungskomponente unnötig zu erschweren.
