Summary of a Literature Review in Scalability of QoS-aware Service Composition
This identifies a systematic gap in scalability assessment for service composition, which is incremental as it consolidates existing literature without proposing new solutions.
The paper reviewed 47 papers from 2004 to 2018 and found that researchers lack consistent methods to characterize scalability in QoS-aware service composition, leading to limited evaluation criteria.
This paper shows that authors have no consistent way to characterize the scalability of their solutions, and so consider only a limited number of scaling characteristics. This review aimed at establishing the evidence that the route for designing and evaluating the scalability of dynamic QoS-aware service composition mechanisms has been lacking systematic guidance, and has been informed by a very limited set of criteria. For such, we analyzed 47 papers, from 2004 to 2018.
