Jeppe Brønsted, Klaus Marius Hansen, Mads Ingstrup, Department of Computer Science, University of Aarhus, Denmark:
Composition of services, i.e., providing new services by combining existing ones, is a pervasive idea in ubiquitous computing. We surveyed the field by looking at what features are actually present in technologies that support service composition in some form. Condensing this into a list of features allowed us to discuss the qualitative merits and drawbacks of various approaches to service composition, focusing in particular on usability, adaptability and efficiency.
