This document provides an empirical study on testing of service-oriented architecture (SOA) based services. It discusses SOA testing perspectives from different stakeholder views, different levels of SOA testing including unit, integration, system and regression testing. It also outlines the challenges of SOA testing due to its distributed, dynamic and heterogeneous nature. Traditional testing approaches are centralized and static, while SOA testing requires a collaborative approach across service providers, integrators and clients.
A Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is a system consisting of software components with standardized component-access and usage interfaces that are independent of any specific platform or implementation technology and it's solution for making two software to communicate to each other.
Service Oriented Architecture.
SOA is a style of architecting applications in such a way that they are composed of discrete software agents that have simple, well defined interfaces and are orchestrated through a loose coupling to perform a required function.
Evaluation of QoS based Web- Service Selection Techniques for Service Composi...Waqas Tariq
In service oriented computing, services are the basic construct that aims to facilitate building of business application in a more flexible and interoperable manner for enterprise collaboration. To satisfy the needs of clients and to adapt to changing needs, service composition is performed in order to compose the various capabilities of available services. With the proliferation of services offering similar functionalities around the web, the task of service selection for service composition is complicated. It is vital to provide service consumers with facilities for selecting required web services according to their non-functional characteristics or quality of service (QoS). Therefore, the process of service selection is complicated due to divergent view of service consumers and service providers on the quality of services. The objective of this paper presents the exploration of various techniques of Quality of Service based Service Selection (QSS) approach in the literature. To evaluate the service selection process, a number of criteria for QSS approach have been identified and presented in this paper.
Web service discovery methods and techniques a reviewijcseit
Web Services are independent software systems which offer machine-to-machine interactions over the
Internet to achieve well-described operations. With the advent of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA),
Web Services have gained tremendous popularity. As the number of Web Services is increased, finding the
best service according to users requirements becomes a challenge. The Semantic Web Service discovery is
the process of finding the most suitable service that satisfies the user request. A number of approaches to
Web Service discovery have been proposed. In this paper, we classify them and determine the advantages
and disadvantages of each group, to help researchers to implement a new or to select the most appropriate
existing approach for Semantic Web Service discovery. We, also, provide a taxonomy which categorizes
Web Service discovery systems from different points of view. There are three different views, namely,
architectural view, automation view and matchmaking view. We focus on the matchmaking view which is
further divided into semantic-based, syntax-based and context-aware. We explain each sub-group of it in
detail, and then subsequently compare the sub-groups in terms of their merits and drawbacks.

AGENTS AND OWL-S BASED SEMANTIC WEB SERVICE DISCOVERY WITH USER PREFERENCE SU...IJwest
Service-oriented computing (SOC) is an interdisciplinary paradigm that revolutionizes the very fabric of
distributed software development applications that adopt service-oriented architectures (SOA) can evolve
during their lifespan and adapt to changing or unpredictable environments more easily. SOA is built
around the concept of Web Services. Although the Web services constitute a revolution in Word Wide Web,
they are always regarded as non-autonomous entities and can be exploited only after their discovery. With
the help of software agents, Web services are becoming more efficient and more dynamic.
The topic of this paper is the development of an agent based approach for Web services discovery and
selection in witch, OWL-S is used to describe Web services, QoS and service customer request. We develop
an efficient semantic service matching which takes into account concepts properties to match concepts in
Web service and service customer request descriptions. Our approach is based on an architecture
composed of four layers: Web service and Request description layer, Functional match layer, QoS
computing layer and Reputation computing layer.
QOS Aware Formalized Model for Semantic Web Service SelectionIJwest
Selecting the most relevant Web Service according to a client requirement is an onerous task, as innumerous number of functionally same Web Services(WS) are listed in UDDI registry. WS are functionally same but their Quality and performance varies as per service providers. A web Service Selection Process involves two major points: Recommending the pertinent Web Service and avoiding unjustifiable web service. The deficiency in keyword based searching is that it doesn’t handle the client request accurately as keyword may have ambiguous meaning on different scenarios. UDDI and search engines all are based on keyword search, which are lagging behind on pertinent Web service selection. So the search mechanism must be incorporated with the Semantic behavior of Web Services. In order to strengthen this approach, the proposed model is incorporated with Quality of Services (QoS) based Ranking of semantic web services.
This paper focuses on various concepts of Quality of Service associated with web services. Various QoS parameters like performance, availability, reliability and stability etc. are formalized in order to enhance the pertinence of web service selection. A QoS mediator agent based Web Service Selection Model is proposed where QoS Consultant acts as a Mediator Agent between clients and service providers. Model suggests user’s preferences on QoS parameter selection. The proposed model helps to select pertinent Web Service as per user’s requirement and reduce the human effort.. Further process of adding ontology with semantic web services is also illustrated here.
It is a presentation of a research paper on Component Based Software Engineering vs Service Oriented Architecture. It deals with basic comparative study of CBSE and SOA , SOA technologies and Service Components, Modern Components. It also covers discussions and justifications of performance issues of web services.
6 ijmecs v7-n1-5 a novel testing model for soa based servicesAbhishek Srivastava
SOA (Service-Oriented Architecture) filled the gap between software and commercial enterprise. SOA integrates multiple web services. We bear to secure the caliber of web services that gives guarantee about what network services work and their output results. There is close to work has to be performed for an automatic test case generation for SOA based services. But, full coverage of XML elements is missing. To the best of our knowledge this all works do not attempt to cover all possible elements of the XML schema presents in the WSDL file. There is also a need to apply different assertions on each service operation for generating the test cases. To overcome this problem we proposed a novel testing model for SOA based application. This new testing model helps us to get the automatic test cases of SOA based application. We build up our new test model with the aid of our proposed test case generation algorithm and test case selection algorithm. In the end, we generate the test suite execution results and find the coverage of XML schema elements present in the WSDL file.
Since service-oriented architectures make the commercial systems more reliable and reusable, they have
gained more popularity in industry and scientific community in recent decades. Service-oriented
architectures bring flexibility and reusability to software design. Due to the increasing number of services
on the Web, finding a service which is suited to user requirements is crucial. The process of finding suitable
services to user request is one of the main purposes of service-oriented architectures. Many methods have
been proposed for service discovery in service-oriented architectures that try to fulfil user requirements
and offer suitable services to user request; however the proposed methods do not have enough precision for
discovering suitable services. In this paper, we propose a method for service discovery which offers more
accurate services according to user request. The proposed method is a hybrid semantic matchmaker for
service discovery in service oriented architecture. By providing accurate services suitable to user requests,
we have greatly increased the reusability rate and reduced the time and cost of software development
METRIC-BASED FRAMEWORK FOR TESTING & EVALUATION OF SERVICE-ORIENTED SYSTEMijseajournal
The increase in the significance of service orientation in system development is accelerating with an increase in demand for qualitative and cost-effective systems. Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is one of the established structural designs used for developing and implementing flexible, reusable, rapid and low-cost service-oriented systems. The established testing and evaluation methods don’t work well for systems that are made-up of services (service-oriented system). As a result, several testing and evaluation metrics for service-oriented systems were proposed. However, these metrics were created based on preceding software development approaches that offer insufficient focus to service-oriented systems thereby lacking the efficiency to evaluate these systems. Furthermore, Lack of access to source code also frustrates classical mutation-testing approaches, which require seeding the code with errors. This paper discusses different testing and evaluation metrics available for SOS and proposed a theory-grounded framework for testing and evaluation of service-oriented systems with the aim of decreasing cost and increasing the quality of the SOS. Then, the proposed framework is validated theoretically to check its usability and applicability for testing and evaluation of SOS. The results show that the proposed framework is able to decrease cost and increasing the quality of the SOS.
SOA is becoming important for Business Process Management and Enterprises. Now SOA is widely used by Enterprises as it provides seamless environment, flexibility, interoperability, but at the same time security should also consider because the basic SOA framework doesn�t possess any security. It depends upon the respective proprietor for security [1]. In recent times many research work had done for SOA security. Researchers have also proposed various frameworks and models such as FIX [2], SAVT [3] which tries a lot, but cannot achieve any landmark as they are based on XML schema.This proposed novel work contains an inbuilt security module which was based on PKI. At the same time this model will intact the flexibility and interoperability as the security module is embedded by analyzing the nature of WSDL, UDDI, SOAP and XML. These protocols are also compatible with PKI. Proposed Model was implemented in the asp.net environment then experimental results are compared with other security methods such as data mining based web security and automata based web security
MULTIVIEW SOA : EXTENDING SOA USING A PRIVATE CLOUD COMPUTING AS SAAS AND DAASijseajournal
This work is based on two major areas, the Multiview Service Oriented Architecture and the combination between the computing cloud and MV-SOA. Thus, it is suggested to extend firstly the service oriented architecture (SOA) into an architecture called MV-SOA by adding two components, the Multiview service generator, whose role is to transform the classic service into Multiview service, and the data base, this component seeks to stock all of consumer service information. It is also suggested to combine the computing cloud and Multiview Service Oriented Architecture MVSOA. To reach such combination, the
MVSOA architecture was taken and we added to the client-side a private cloud in SaaS and DaaS.

BUSINESS SILOS INTEGRATION USING SERVICE ORIENTED ARCHITECTUREIJCSEA Journal
Agile integration satisfies the business agility and provides solutions for maintaining business changes and ensures that the enterprise survives in the current competition. Any business should be robust enough to respond to end user request. Existing traditional enterprise applications are in-capable of integrating with
different business silos lacks to improve the business agility. To address this issue, this paper is about the agile integration of different business silos using “Service Oriented Architecture” and its core technologyenables the business enterprise systems flexible, loosely coupled and improves agility. Enterprise business
systems have to adopt Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) as it promises to help them respond more rapidly to changing business requirements by composing new solutions from existing business services. Here the definition of SOA, its layers and the core technologies have been discussed.

The current work aims at giving an overview of the conceptual model of SOA based on set theory approach. Also, it posits mathematical definitions for logical, environment and application service definition with the help of general systems theory and mathematical foundation. The mathematical model, definition and functionality of services enhance SOA principles which can be used efficiently in integrating heterogeneous components.
Performance Prediction of Service-Oriented Architecture - A surveyEditor IJCATR
Performance prediction and evaluation for SOA based applications assist software consumers to estimate their applications
based on service specifications created by service developers. Incorporating traditional performance models such as Stochastic Petri
Nets, Queuing Networks, and Simulation present drawbacks of SOA based applications due to special characteristics of SOA such as
lose coupling, self-contained and interoperability. Although, researchers have suggested many methods in this area during last decade,
none of them has obtained popular industrial use. Based on this, we have conducted a comprehensive survey on these methods to
estimate their applicability. This survey classified these approaches according to their performance metrics analyzed, performance
models used, and applicable project stage. Our survey helps SOA architects to select the appropriate approach based on target
performance metric and researchers to identify the SOA state-of-art performance prediction
Contemporary research challenges and applications of service oriented archite...Dr. Shahanawaj Ahamad
Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is distributed architectural framework that provides service-based
solutions for improving the effectiveness of enterprise’s IT infrastructure. In this framework, technical and
business processes are implemented as services. A service is an independent software application that has been
designed to perform a specific function with emphasis on loose coupling between interacting services and their
components. SOA permits developers to utilize many of the resources from existing services to form the
distributed applications. This study has investigated to highlight the emerging issues of SOA such as service
structures advancement, requirements of evolution for current age applications like mobile-cloud, medical and
mechanism for interoperable operations. The paper also uncovers the practical application domains of SOA. It
has identified research attentions in these domains with detection of issues to carry further research to
overcome constraints in current scenarios.

# Internet Security: Safeguarding Your Digital World
In the contemporary digital age, the internet is a cornerstone of our daily lives. It connects us to vast amounts of information, provides platforms for communication, enables commerce, and offers endless entertainment. However, with these conveniences come significant security challenges. Internet security is essential to protect our digital identities, sensitive data, and overall online experience. This comprehensive guide explores the multifaceted world of internet security, providing insights into its importance, common threats, and effective strategies to safeguard your digital world.
## Understanding Internet Security
Internet security encompasses the measures and protocols used to protect information, devices, and networks from unauthorized access, attacks, and damage. It involves a wide range of practices designed to safeguard data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Effective internet security is crucial for individuals, businesses, and governments alike, as cyber threats continue to evolve in complexity and scale.
### Key Components of Internet Security
1. **Confidentiality**: Ensuring that information is accessible only to those authorized to access it.
2. **Integrity**: Protecting information from being altered or tampered with by unauthorized parties.
3. **Availability**: Ensuring that authorized users have reliable access to information and resources when needed.
## Common Internet Security Threats
Cyber threats are numerous and constantly evolving. Understanding these threats is the first step in protecting against them. Some of the most common internet security threats include:
### Malware
Malware, or malicious software, is designed to harm, exploit, or otherwise compromise a device, network, or service. Common types of malware include:
- **Viruses**: Programs that attach themselves to legitimate software and replicate, spreading to other programs and files.
- **Worms**: Standalone malware that replicates itself to spread to other computers.
- **Trojan Horses**: Malicious software disguised as legitimate software.
- **Ransomware**: Malware that encrypts a user's files and demands a ransom for the decryption key.
- **Spyware**: Software that secretly monitors and collects user information.
### Phishing
Phishing is a social engineering attack that aims to steal sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details. Attackers often masquerade as trusted entities in email or other communication channels, tricking victims into providing their information.
### Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attacks
MitM attacks occur when an attacker intercepts and potentially alters communication between two parties without their knowledge. This can lead to the unauthorized acquisition of sensitive information.
### Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Attacks
