 Goal  Multiple & concurrent service composition (modeling)  Challenges  Existing schemes does not consider multiple & concurrent service composition  Thus, next composition requests have to be blocked in processing a composition job  composition processing time become longer!  Approach  Casting the composition problem into maximum flow network problem  Multiple sources, multiple sinks  Possible maximum flow out of certain sources or into all sinks  Expected Result  Automated Service Composition Graph (in Polynomial-Time) Research Outline

Preliminary System Model ApplicationTestbed Topology  Input: Multiple applications and testbed topology  Output: The graphs of service composition for the applications

(DHT-based) Service Discovery Service Instantiating (according to # of apps) Step 1. Service Finding

Step 2. Configuring Network Unit Capacity Maximum Flow Network

Step 3. Service Paths Finding

 Input: Graph G with flow capacity c, a source node s, and a sink node t  Output: A flow f from s to t which is a maximum 1. f(u,v)  0 for all edges (u,v) 2. While there is a path p from s to t in G f, such that c f (u,v)>0 for all edges (u,v) ∈ p: 1. f(u,v)  f(u,v) + c f (p) 2. f(v,u)  f(v,u) – c f (p) Service Path Finding Using Maximum Flow Algorithm Ford-Fulkerson Algorithm

 How to evaluate?  To measure service composition processing time per application in large-scale virtualized computing & networking testbed  Need more criteria…  Network capacities consideration  System model update using weighted maximum flow algorithm  Adaptive composition  Feedback-driven resource/service adaptation  Stabilization in dynamic situation  Load balancing  Complex application design  Workflow-pattern-based specification Discussion

Summary  Preliminary system model for multiple & concurrent service composition  Service composition approach based on network optimization method  Haven’t I done an evaluation yet.
