Hacks
Clever hacks are a prerequisite to successful software development. [citation needed :-)]
The projects below have been built, used, evaluated and extended during the thesis work period.
SPACE
SPACE, the Service Platform Architecture for Contracting and Execution,
is the platform name for our overall highly-integrated set of SOA components
and services needed to run adaptive services with flexible and enforceable quality guarantees.
Metadata Correlation Service
The MDCS attaches to the SPACE platform services to
retrieve, aggregate and correlate specifications about non-functional properties in service-bound and
runtime-created service artefacts, such as descriptions, agreement templates and monitoring reports.
Experimental Facility
The Experimental Facility contains scripts
and configuration directives to allow for large-scale experiments on service platform functions. It includes
a service description crawler, a user activity simulator and mass-hosting scripts.
