Abstract

Some important mechanisms in neuroendocrine-immune (NEI) system are inspired to design a decentralized, evolutionary, scalable, and adaptive system for Web service composition and management. We first abstract a novel intelligent network model inspired from the NEI system. Based on this model, we then propose a method for Web service emergence by designing a bio-entity as an autonomous agent to represent Web service. As such, automatic composition and dynamic management of Web services can be achieved. Also, we build its computation platform which allows the bio-entities to cooperate over Web services and exploits capabilities of their partners. Finally, the simulation results on the platform show that Web service emergence can be achieved through self-organizing, cooperating, and compositing. The proposed method provides a novel solution for intelligent composition and management of Web services.
