WS-FTM: A Fault Tolerance Mechanism for Web Services
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper demonstrates our Web Service based N-Version model, WS-FTM (Web Service-Fault Tolerance Mechanism), which applies this well proven technique to the domain of Web Services to increase system dependability. WS-FTM achieves transparent usage of replicated Web Services by use of a modified stub. The stub is created using tools included in WS-FTM. Our initial implementation includes a simple consensus voter that allows generic result comparison. Finally we show, through the use of a non-trivial example, that WS-FTM can be used to increase the reliability of a Web Service system.

WS-mediator for improving dependability of service composition
Web Services and service-oriented architectures (SOAs) represent a new paradigm for building distributed computing applications. In recent years, they have started to play a critical role in numerous e-Science and eCommerce applications. The advantages of Web Services, such as their loosely coupled architecture and standardized interoperability, make them a desirable platform, especially for de...
متن کاملDesign and implementation of a Byzantine fault tolerance framework for Web services
Many Web services are expected to run with high degree of security and dependability. To achieve this goal, it is essential to use a Web-services compatible framework that tolerates not only crash faults, but Byzantine faults as well, due to the untrusted communication environment in which the Web services operate. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of such a framework, ca...
متن کاملMediating Web Services for Dependability
The paper presents a novel approach to improving dependability of Web Service composition. The proposed architecture, called WS-Mediator, relies on an off-theshelf mediator solution implementing run-time dependability monitoring and assessment, resilience-explicit computing and fault tolerance mechanisms used together to achieve dependable dynamic Web Service integration. We have implemented a ...
متن کاملSelection for Web Services
Service-oriented systems are usually composed by heterogeneous Web services, which are distributed across the Internet and provided by organizations. Building highly reliable service-oriented systems is a challenge due to the highly dynamic nature of Web services. In this paper, the authors apply software fault tolerance techniques for Web services, where the component failures are handled by f...
متن کاملOn composing Dependable Web Services using undependable web components
This paper proposes a novel approach to constructing and modelling Dependable Web Services (DeW) that are built by composing web components that can be undependable. This is achieved by applying a structured approach to the Web Services (WSs) development, based on the Web Service Composition Actions (WSCAs) scheme and a corresponding event-driven simulation model of composite WS. The dependabil...
