Web Services and Incerta Spiriti: A Game Theoretic Approach to Uncertainty
<12> The service computational model differs radically from traditional programming models where execution times are predictable. In the world of service-based computation the performance depends on demand – during surges in activity the performance of a service may be degraded, perhaps even to the point of failure. It this paper game theory is used to assess orchestration performance when a number of services fail because of over-demand. The work involved international collaboration with UPC Barcelona. The ideas for assessing the quality of a service have been utilised in a collaborative research project with SAP Research (funded by SAP).
