Performance and Dependability in Service Computing : Concepts , Techniques and Research Directions

Performance and Dependability in Service Computing: Concepts, Techniques and Research Directions highlights current technological trends and related research issues in dedicated chapters without restricting their scope. This book focuses on performance and dependability issues associated with service computing and these two complementary aspects, which include concerns of quality of service (QoS), real-time constraints, security, reliability and other important requirements when it comes to integrating services into real-world business processes and critical applications.
