Abstract
- Replication is one of the main techniques aiming to improve Web services’ (WS) quality of service (QoS) in distributed environments, including clouds and mobile devices. Service replication is a way of improving WS performance and availability by creating several copies or replicas of Web services which work in parallel or sequentially under defined circumstances. In this paper, a generalized replication process for distributed environments is discussed based on established replication studies. The generalized replication process consists of three main steps: sensing the environment characteristics, determining the replication strategy, and implementing the selected replication strategy. To demonstrate application of the generalized replication process, a case study in the telecommunication domain is presented. The adequacy of the selected replication strategy is demonstrated by comparing it to another replication strategy as well as to a non-replicated service. The authors believe that a generalized replication process will help service providers to enhance QoS and accordingly attract more customers.
