The paradigmatic shift from a Web of manual interactions to programmatic driven by services is creating unprecedented opportunities for the formation online business-to-business (B2B) collaborations. In particular, creation value-added composition existing ones gaining significant momentum. Since many available provide overlapping or identical functionality, albeit with different quality service (QoS), choice needs be made determine which are participate in given composite service. This...

One particular trend observed in healthcare is the progressive shift of data and services to cloud, partly due convenience (e.g. availability complete patient medical history real-time) savings economics management). There are, however, limitations using conventional cryptographic primitives access control models address security privacy concerns an increasingly cloud-based environment. In this paper, we study potential use Blockchain technology protect hosted within cloud. We also describe...

A privacy policy is a statement informing users how their information will be collected, used, and disclosed. Failing to provide correct may result in fine. However, writing tedious error-prone, because the author not understand source code well as it could have been written by others (e.g., outsourcing), or does know internal working of third-party libraries used. In this paper, we propose develop novel system named AutoPPG automatically construct readable descriptions facilitate generation...

Mobile computing adds a new wrinkle to the ageold problem of caching. Today’s wireless links are both slow and expensive, not always available user. Therefore, when mobile user is disconnected, cache miss means (at best) substantial cost in time money, or worst) complete halt work if critical information has been cached. Existing solutions this rely on some combination explicit hoard profiles spying user’s file accesses. Neither these approaches ideal terms reliability user-friendliness. Our...

<h3>Objective</h3> To evaluate the relationship between findings via osteomeatal unit computed tomography (OMU CT) of olfactory cleft and function in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). <h3>Design</h3> Retrospective review medical records. <h3>Setting</h3> Referral center. <h3>Participants</h3> Two hundred ten CRS who underwent OMU CT tests were included this study. <h3>Main Outcome Measures</h3> All paranasal sinuses graded Lund-Mackay scoring system. The was on a scale 0 to 4...

Recent years have witnessed a sharp increase of malicious apps that steal users' personal information. To address concerns about privacy risks and to comply with data protection laws, more are supplied policies written in natural language help users understand an app's practices. However, little is known whether these trustworthy or not. Questionable may be prepared by careless app developers someone intention. In this paper, we carry out systematic study on policy proposing novel approach...

In a previous paper [l], we described ARTour Web Express, software system that makes it possible to run World Wide applications over wide-area wireless nehvorks. Our earlier discussed how our significantly reduces user cost and response time during online browsing communications links. Even with these savings, however, users may experience slow performance. This is result of the inherent delay communication coupled congestion in Internet servers, which cannot be masked Corn under synchronous...

In this paper, we present the Web services outsourcing manager framework via a mathematical model for dynamic business processes configuration using existing to meet customers' requirements. An XML-based annotation document is proposed capture requirements and used dynamically generate search scripts an advanced discovery engine find from UDDI registries service inspection language documents. A list of available returned further composition optimization produce final process. This paper...

Effective personal dietary guidelines are essential for health management and preventing chronic diseases. The objective of this research is to achieve nutrient-balanced food recommendations each individual, while considering individual's requirements at the same time. To reach goal, we developed a location-aware interactive diet consultant named SmartDiet based on multi-objective optimization. proposed personalized planning approach not only translates nutrient into realistic dish choices,...

Exploring an appropriate business application published as a Web Service in the UDDI registry is critical issue. Search for such should be effective terms of time and uniformed interfaces. In this paper, XML-based exploring engine that provides developers with standard interfaces efficiently searching service information single or multiple registries proposed. We refer “Business Explorer Services” (BE4WS). It based on proposed Markup Language (USML) carrying search request including queries,...

Abstract As one of the causes increasing population with chronic diseases, low compliance healthy lifestyle has been a major challenge in healthcare industry. Not seeing immediate positive outcomes, many people became frustrated and stopped adhering to health plans that offer long‐term benefits. Studies have suggested peer supports are effective improve compliance, social cognitive theories indicated personal realization confidence enhanced through entertaining gaming elements could...

Offering personalized services through dynamically formed ecosystems is essential to personal wellness management. In this paper, we present the design of a cloud-enabled platform facilitate collection and delivery evidence for personalization in multi-provider ecosystem environment.

In this paper, we present Greenolive, an open platform for wellness management ecosystem. Wellness applications, which facilitate preventive care and chronic disease treatments, are considered as a key component to enhance healthcare quality reduce cost. Currently, most of the applications device-oriented, stand-alone software lack APIs that allow new value-added be developed rapidly. Further, these have not fully utilized collected monitoring data generate knowledge can help people further...

The service mediation that decouples interactions is the foundation to support composition. early mediations are keyword and value-based, which require both providers consumers adhere same data formats when defining interfaces requests. As such, these inadequate for supporting among services in heterogeneous dynamic environments. In order overcome this limitation, semantics introduced into mediations, more flexible matchings. paper, we present design implementation of a novel semantic...

As XML formats have been widely adopted for representing business documents both within and across enterprises, to translation becomes a common critical component process integration. Due limitations of popular approaches such as XSLT translations, we designed model driven development framework with the additional benefits code re-use strong built-in validation. We further applied this domain performance management, converting from human-readable format machine-readable XMI
