1.1 A Service-Oriented Virtual Community Overlay Network for Secure External Service Orchestration

Sudong Chen, Eindhoven University of Technology

Abstract:
The Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is used extensively in ubiquitous computing environments. Using external service orchestration, services can be composed into applications. Since cooperation takes place between services that are scattered over the Internet and belong to different parties, there is a growing need to protect the ownership of service providers and keep the security of communication messages in service composition. This paper shows the details of a service-oriented virtual community overlay network designed for secure external service orchestration. It can also provide contracted QoS guarantees that will definitely affect the overall performance of ubiquitous applications. Further, it highlights the working principle of access control policies as well as a service behavior monitoring mechanism using an example scenario.

Best Paper

Update: Sorry about that -- didn't realize this got posted initially with no content. As Steve pointed out in comments, the votes were close. After tallying the online voting with in-attendance votes (from those who didn't make the online poll before it closed), Todor made a strong comeback but Ian Wakeman et. al. finally triumphed with a 9-7 edge. Congratulations to them, and we look forward to seeing you all again next year.

Posting abstracts for papers ..

The workshop is just over ten days away. In preparation for the discussions, and also to get the attendees more conversant with the researchers and papers to be presented, we will be posting the abstracts for accepted papers (one per blog item) over the next few days. If you are the author of a paper, and want to add links in to related research or a personal website for more information, please feel free to do so. For convenience, the blog posting will be prefixed with a number of the form S.P, where S is the session number (1, 2 or 3) and P is the paper number within that session. Each session will conclude with a panel focussed on discussion around the papers presented. In that context, if you have specific questions for authors, or have comments on the topic -- feel free to post them against the relevant blog items.. Update: I'm just waiting on some clarifications from ACM before I release the abstracts... do check back. Update: ACM granted us permissions -- the abstracts will...

About the "1 minute madness" ...

As you may have noticed in the workshop program , we have a final 30-minute plenary discussion to close out the workshop. In order to make this as interactive and useful as possible, we decided to preface this with a 20-minute session called "1-minute madness". Some of you may have seen this forum before at other workshops. Basically, this is a soapbox of sorts -- anyone (presenters, organizers, attendees) is welcome to participate and provide fodder for the follow-up discussion. The idea is to make a 1-minute pitch about a topic of interest. You may elect to use slides or not - if the former, a single slide is ideal but you can use your discretion here. For convenience, here are some possible 'themes' for the pitch. These are suggestions only: Research in a nutshell . What problem are you trying to solve? Why is it important? What makes your solution novel? Hot Topics . What should the MPAC community's next big research challenge be? Why? Experience Lessons . S...
