Abstract

Constructing Virtual Organizations (VOs) by creating service cooperation (i.e. service-oriented cooperation) has become a mainstream approach for reforming the development of application software systems in Web environments. However, the inherent non-controllability of business services across different management domains has brought on the so-called "trust" crisis that the success and benefit of cooperation cannot be ensured. It is this crisis that cumbers the achievement of autonomic cooperation and thereby the large-scale deployment of VOs. Therefore, this paper proposes a model, called IGTASC, to conquer this crisis and make service cooperation both trusted and autonomic by developing three closely-coupled technologies: institution-governed cooperation, policy-driven self-management, and community facilitation management.
