Abstract:
There is an increasing demand for web services to be more flexible, in order to
suit fast changing business needs and user requirements. Web services need to be
adaptive to changes in context, so as to provide web service personalisation, i.e.
services that are adaptive to meet user's preferences or that accommodate to changes
in the business environment. This thesis investigates a policy-based management
approach to achieving adaptive composite services. A key aspect of policy-based
management is to be able to specify high-level policies that can be mapped down to
low-level policies, in order to manage the adaptive behaviours of web services. This
thesis researches how to describe adaptive composite services so as to expose their
adaptive behaviours, and how to specify and automatically refine management
policies to dynamically manage these adaptive behaviours.
