- Description: Multi-tenant service-based systems (SBSs) have become a major paradigm in software engineering in the cloud environment. Instead of serving a single end-user, a multitenant SBS provides multiple tenants with similar and yet customised functionalities with potentially different quality-of service (QoS) values. Thus, existing approaches to service selection for single-tenant SBSs are no longer suitable. Furthermore, the target multi-tenancy maturity level also needs to be considered in the service selection approach for an SBS. In this paper, we propose three novel QoS-aware service selection approaches for composing multi-tenant SBSs that achieve three different multi-tenancy maturity levels. Extensive and comprehensive experiments are conducted and the experimental results show that our approaches outperform the existing approach in both effectiveness and efficiency.

- Description: Runtime anomalies occurring to service-based systems (SBSs) must be located and fixed in a timely manner in order to guarantee successful delivery of outcomes in response to user requests. Monitoring all component services constantly is impractical due to excessive resource consumption. Inspecting all component services upon anomalies is time-consuming and thus also impractical. In this work, we propose a novel approach that employs spectrum-based fault localisation techniques to locate runtime anomalies in SBSs. Large-scale experiments are conducted and experimental results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approach.
