Advanced Transaction Models for e-Services

Radha Krishna - Software Engineering and Technology Labs, Infosys Technologies Ltd, Hyderabad, India

Dr. K. Vidyasankar - Memorial University, St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada

Transactional models guarantee the successful execution of transactions and ensure that they behave correctly during transaction failures. Due to the adoption and advancement of technologies such as Workflows, Web Services, SOA and cloud computing, several new application scenarios have come about (such as, orchestration of state-less services, rollback after an activity successfully completed, inter-dependencies between long-running transactions/activities during execution in parallel, arbitration, Software as a Service etc). The motivation for conceiving newer transactions models is to cater to complexities in consistency checking and atomicity that arise. Recently there has been work on transactional models to support e-services transactions for complex application domains. The focuses of these studies were on transaction commitments, inter-dependencies between activity commitment and payments. The objective of this tutorial is to bring out the recent evolution of transaction models and recognize the relevance of transactional models in the context of e-services.

Since, organizations are heavily dependent on services (ex. contracting, trading, etc.) with their partners or customers, e-Services Enactment systems are gaining lot of importance from both researchers’ community as well as businesses. Such e-services systems possess challenges in handling transactions originating from business process (workflows) while adhering to Quality of Service and payment issues. This tutorial covers the necessary background on advance transaction models and e-service enactment apart from aiding the participants in understanding the underlying concepts and issues in developing transactional models that support workflow/task commitments. This tutorial introduces commitment models for e-services and presents details of contemporary technologies and applications that follow advanced transaction models.

Information Quality in the Web Era

Carlo Batini – Università degli Studi di Milano Bicocca, Italy

Matteo Palmonari – Università degli Studi di Milano Bicocca, Italy

Now more than ever, information is available in different formats, media and resources and it is accessed and exploited through multiple channels. This available information is not only alphanumeric/structured, but also semi-structured, i.e. represented in XML documents and spreadsheets, and unstructured, i.e. represented in free-text format or in terms of pictures, videos or sounds. Moreover, Web ontologies and linked data, i.e. knowledge bases represented with semantic Web languages and exposed on the Web, are becoming increasingly important information sources, also because of their role in supporting many information processing tasks (e.g. data integration, service oriented architectures, semantic search, and so on). Each piece of information is complexly intertwined with the other ones and each contributes in creating the information assets of an organization.

The tutorial aims at describing a comprehensive framework of research results in the area of Information Quality considering also the new and emergent perspective coming from the representation of information on the Web. In particular, the tutorial will provide a unifying framework for information quality by encompassing structured, semi-structured and unstructured information (text, images) on the one side, and Web ontologies on the other side. The relationships among concepts, dimensions and metrics for information quality related to structured, semi-structured and unstructured data have been investigated in past works and tutorials of the presenter; in this tutorial we summarize these results and we focus on the relationships between information quality concepts, dimensions and metrics for structured information sources and for Web ontologies, where relevant research has been often carried out under different problem category (e.g. ontology evaluation).

Presenters’ bio

Carlo Batini is full professor of Computer Engineering at University of Milano Bicocca, Italy. His research interests include cooperative information systems, information systems, data base modeling and design, usability of information systems, data and information quality, web services design, eGovernment planning methodologies, and Repositories of services and conceptual information. Formerly, since 1995 to 2003 he has been a member of the board of directors of the Authority for Information Technology in public administration, where he headed several large scale projects for the modernization of public administration, ranging from services for businesses, design of a common back office infrastructure, reorganization of data bases of administration, publish and subscribe infrastructures, document management, quality of services, multichannel services. He has written several books for courses on data base design and data quality: in regards to the former subject we mention a book in English for Benjamin and Cumming ed., with Sham Navathe and Stefano Ceri, on methodologies for conceptual and logical data base design, adopted in several courses and translated in Spanish. In regards to the latter subject, we mention a book in English with Scannapieco, Data quality Concepts, Methodologies and Techniques, published by Springer, adopted in several courses and translated in Italian. He has been invited to spend research activities at University of California, Los Angeles, University of Florida, Gainesville, Pecking Beda University. He was invited to take seminars in previous universities and at University of Toronto, Tampere, Turku, Michigan, Troy (USA), and more recently, during his activity in Italian Public Administration, at IBM, Washigton DC, Microsoft, Redmond USA, Ecole Nationale d’Administration and Atica, Paris.

Matteo Palmonari is a Post-doctoral fellow at the Department of Computer Science, Systems and Communication (DISCo) of the University of Milan-Bicocca, where he works with the SeQuoIAS research group. His main interests concern the Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KRR) area and the application of KRR techniques to domain such as metadata management, service computing and event correlation for pervasive systems. In particular, many of the researches he carried out are related to Web ontologies and the semantic Web, such as these in the field of ontology-driven Web portals, service discovery, Web model integration, and aggregated search of data and services.
