Nevertheless, resource management in MG is much more complicated than that in other grid applications due to the geographically distributed manufacturing resources, which range from CAD, CAPP and CAE to various kinds of machine tools. With the interaction of manufacturing grid information service (MGIS, developed by ourselves) and globus resource allocation manager (GRAM, provided by GT3), a resource management framework is presented to perform the functions of resource encapsulation, registry, discovery and monitoring. Furthermore, the application architecture and an example are depicted to illustrate the utilization of the resource management system.展开更多

The presentation layer plays the key role, converging the external information from the collaboration layer to the inside of information system (IS), and diffusing the internal information from the service layer to public users. This framework can also illustrate how users contribute to producing new services, and how web services are integrated to collaborate with public users.展开更多

A manufacturing service system for PKM is developed to provide the services of the complex-surface machining for potential geographically-dispersed manufacturing enterprises. In order to easily in- tegrate the external system, Web services are used to encapsulate post-processing functions of PKM legacy sys- tems, including compilation, workspace calculation, interfere calibration, and kinematics transformation. A ser- vice-oriented architecture(SOA) is proposed for the cooperative work between the PKM system and its client. The workflow and the function module of this manufacturing service system are presented. An example shows that as a result of SOA and loose coupling, such a Web service-based manufacturing service system is easier to in- tegrate and interoperate with its client. Meanwhile, the system decreases the manufacturing cost and improves the efficiency than its former kind of distributed system.展开更多

It requires sensing and capturing heterogeneous manufacturing resources and extensive data analysis through the industrial internet. However,the cloud computing and serviceoriented architecture are slightly inadequate in dynamic manufacturing resource management. This paper integrates the technology of edge computing and microservice and develops an intelligent edge gateway for internet of thing(IoT)-based manufacturing. Distributed manufacturing resources can be accessed through the edge gateway,and cloud-edge collaboration can be realized. The intelligent edge gateway provides a solution for complex resource ubiquitous perception in current manufacturing scenarios. Finally,a prototype system is developed to verify the effectiveness of the intelligent edge gateway.展开更多

To meet new requirements in the 5 G era, service based architecture is introduced into mobile networks. The monolithic network elements(e.g., MME, PGW, etc.) are split into smaller network functions to provide customized services. However, the management and deployment of network functions in service based 5 G core network are still big challenges. In this paper, we propose a novel management architecture for 5 G service based core network based on NFV and SDN. Combined with SDN, NFV and edge computing, the proposed framework can provide distributed and on-demand deployment of network functions, service guaranteed network slicing, flexible orchestration of network functions and optimal workload allocation. Simulations are conducted to show that the proposed framework and algorithm are effective in terms of reducing network operating cost.展开更多

In this paper, we outline the AAL system currently developed in the European project Robot-Era, and describe the engineering aspects and the serviceoriented software architecture of the domestic robot, a service robot with advanced manipulation capabilities. Based on the robot operating system(ROS) middleware, our software integrates a large set of advanced algorithms for navigation, perception, and manipulation. In tests with real end users, the performance and acceptability of the platform are evaluated.展开更多

Only by meeting all the roles can a subject obtain the access to necessary operations and resources. However, because of the dynamic and open traits of Web Services, it is difficult for Web Service providers to work out an access control policy with moderate intensity and to realize a satisfactory balance between protecting the security of resources and maintaining the service reachable rate. To provide a solution to the above problem, this paper proposed a trust compensation access control method based on the Attribute-Based Access Control model. Our main contributions include a formal description of the access control method, a method to calculate the attribute trust degree based on time decay, and the trust compensation value of the attribute trust degree, as well as a new Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) architecture and its procedures based on a detailed trust compensation access control method.展开更多

In this paper,we study the class of security risks that are inherent to the dependence structure in software with vulnerabilities and exhibit a "cascading" effect. We present a measurement framework for evaluating these metrics,and report a preliminary case study on evaluating the dependence-induced security risks in the Apache HTTP Server. The experiment results show that our framework can not only clearly analyze the root cause of the security risks but also quantitatively evaluate the attack consequence of the risks.展开更多

The product will allow users to interact in an efficient, flexible, and transparent fashion with a web-based education environment, in this case Module Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment (Moodle), using Android mobile devices. In order to provide a strong and lasting architecture, the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) methodology is used given that it allows easy software re-utilization as well as integration of heterogeneous services. The architecture is based on web services implemented with Representational State Transfer (REST), as it has been demonstrated to be lighter and less consuming than other protocols, for devices with limited resources such as mobile devices. Web services provide the communication means between the server side and the client side of the architecture, whereas agents are used to deliver the services itself. The authors propose the development of an environment that facilitates the integration of various educational resources to support m-learning. An important aspect of the proposal is the offering of a tool to provide customized alerts for students and teachers, enabling them to remain updated about activities taking place in the courses.展开更多
