Abstract
Quality of Service (QoS) is an important criterion for Web service selection. The work in this paper is based on QoS Information & Computation framework (QoS-IC) [1]. QoS-IC framework supports QoS-based service selection in Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), namely Web services. In this paper, we extend the functionality of QoS-IC framework with QoS-Constraints Model. QoS-Constraints establish an association relationship between different QoS properties and are used to govern the QoS-based service selection in the underlying algorithm. We have enhanced the algorithm to accommodate QoS-Constraints and discussed an experimental evaluation based on an implementation prototype that shows how QoS-Constraints introduce efficiency to the QoS-based service selection mechanism and save valuable time for consumers.
