Description: Topic: Personalized Quality Prediction for Dynamic Service Management Based on Invocation Patterns

Location: Lester W. Cory Conference Room, Science & Engineering Building (SENG), Room 213A

Abstract:
In modern computing environments (e.g., cloud computing, edge computing), services might need to be selected or replaced at runtime and thus they need to be managed dynamically. For services with similar functionality, the most suitable services for a user can be selected based on an evaluation of the quality (QoS) of these services. In dynamic environments like the cloud, further personalization is also paramount. In this talk, I will present a personalized QoS prediction method, which considers impacts of the network, server environments and users input. The method analyzes previous users behavior and further extracts invocation patterns from monitored QoS data through pattern mining. The QoS is then predicted based on invocation QoS patterns and current user invocation features.
