http://www.s-cube-network.eu A list of all deliverables in alphabetic order. daily 1 2008-07-10T11:23:23Z http://www.s-cube-network.eu/results/deliverables/wp-jra-1.3/CD-JRA-1.3.5.pdf The aim of this deliverable is twofold: (1) It provides an updated overview of the research challenges of WP-JRA-1.3 (“End-to-End Quality Provision & SLA Conformance”). (2) It reports on results for run-time quality assurance, quality prediction (to enable proactive adaptation) and automated and proactive negotiation, where first improvements based on the validation results are incorporated. Work related to these principles and techniques, carried out by S-Cube NoE participants and published in books, journals and conference proceedings, is summarized and assessed with respect to the coverage of the research challenges for this workpackage.

All papers deal with the exploitation of codified context knowledge. It can clearly be seen that on the one hand the different research communities interpret “context” differently ranging from HCI aspects to engineering aspects relevant for SBAs. On the other hand our analysis of the relation of the approaches to the life cycle model shows that the approaches try to integrate different phases of the life-cycle and, thus, S-Cube is now focussing more on integrated research, which covers more than one phase of the life-cycle of SBAs.

It also identifies previous approaches from related EU projects and international activities that have resulted in the definition of a large body of concepts relating to software services research. These approaches are scrutinized, adapted and reused to the extend possible as part of the S-Cube KM. In addition, it summarizes and cross-correlates the major research findings of the state-of-the-art deliverables in S-Cube, and shows how they contribute towards building an initial version of the KM. Finally, it describes the connection of the S-Cube KM to a number of knowledge sources and knowledge-intensive activities within S-Cube and its usage by both internal and external users.

The major work achieved during this period was to develop a new version of the KM which builds on the previous content.

The Integrated Knowledge Model is the evolution of the KM with major gaps, overlaps and inconsistencies in knowledge identified, analyzed and landscaped. The work carried out is presented through an analysis of the revisions and changes made to the KM terms. Nine Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) together demonstrate the KM's evolution, the progress made, the results of concentrating effort on the ``specialization'' of knowledge and how the public KM has been used by researchers from all over the globe.

Consolidation of the Knowledge Model is obtained on the basis of the results of the research agenda alignment, and of the new research results achieved by the different research work-packages. The current deliverable constitutes a follow-up of deliverable CD-IA-1.1.3, and offers an assessment of the KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) defined for the evaluation of the consolidation of the Knowledge Model.

First, it summarizes the S-Cube activities and results for what concerns the release of a research roadmap on service-based applications. Secondly, it describes the activities and outcomes to update the S-Cube Knowledge Model (KM) as well as to ensure its sustainability.

To facilitate this, the S-Cube mobility program encourages researchers to spend time in one of the beneficiary’s institutes to exchange research ideas and carry out joint research through the reimbursement of travel and living expenses incurred whilst at the host institution. This deliverable aims to identify research areas and beneficiaries of the mobility program by analysing overlaps in the competencies of the S-Cube partner institutes and through the pro-active identification of suitable candidates for the mobility program, thereby encouraging researcher mobility between these partners.

Based on the results of the mobility stays performed in the first 18 months of the project, we analyze the how the scientific subjects for mobility and the S-Cube integration framework elements have been covered. We further analyze the synergy of competencies between partners and perform a quantitative evaluation based on a set of performance indicators. For each of the analyzed aspects we identify gaps which will be addressed in future mobility exchanges No publisher Sammodi Deliverable 2010-05-17T13:54:17Z File http://www.s-cube-network.eu/results/deliverables/wp-ia-2.1/CD-IA-2.1.4_Mobility%20programme%20determined%20based%20on%20the%20S-Cube%20Convergence%20Knowledge%20Model_U.pdf This deliverable updates the figures provided in deliverable CD-IA-2.1.3 “Initial assessment of results of a separate mobility program for researchers and students” about how the scientific subjects for mobility and the S-Cube integration framework elements have been covered by the mobility initiatives. The reference period goes from month 1 to month 29. It also proposes a restructuring of the scientific subjects for mobility based on the current focus of S-Cube and on the information recorded in the Knowledge Model. Finally, the deliverable provides some guidelines for the future mobility initiatives.

It also outlines possible areas, objectives and implementation routes for future research collaboration between participating S-Cube organisations. It updates and extends previous S-Cube deliverables: CD-IA-2.1.3 “Initial assessment of results of a separate mobility program for researchers and students”; CD-IA-2.1.4 “Mobility program determined based on the S-Cube Convergence Knowledge Model”; PO-IA-2.1.6 “Intermediate Assessment of mobility program for researchers and students”.

In particular, we focus on five cases as they, collectively, touch all the main points of interest within S-Cube. To make all case studies comparable and easily understood, we have defined a case study description approach that leverages from the results achieved by NEXOFRA and from the Requirements Engineering literature. The usage of such approach for revising and describing all cases has been very useful to highlight some weak aspects of the original descriptions and to identify those aspects in the case studies that cover the main points of interest for S-Cube.

In particular, in this deliverable we harmonize and document the refinements of the case studies of deliverable CD-IA-2.2.2 with the scenarios proposed for validation as a joint effort with IA3.2. The aim is to provide a definition of the pilot cases that will be used as reference by the research work-packages.

This new version has strict relationships with other S-Cube Integrated Activities: IA-1.1 for the Knowledge Model and IA-3.1 for the Integrated Research Framework. The methodology is also available as a Wiki available at http://scube-casestudies.ws.dei.polimi.it that forms integral and substantial part of this document.
