Abstract

Abstract In the next few years, the number of devices connected to the web will increase dramatically. This has encouraged the development of complexes and intelligent service-based applications using new paradigms and technologies such as edge computing and cloud computing. These applications are mainly built by the interaction between heterogonous web services. Answering end-users’ queries demands that these services collect, integrate and communicate sensitive data, which makes the vulnerability of data a serious issue. Thereby, this issue is a critical problem in the automatic services composition while users are frequently unquieted about the security and control of their sensitive data. To address this problem, our main idea is that avoiding disclosure of sensitive information can be ensured by selecting services where their mutual trust is high while preserving a good quality of service (QoS) as possible. A new Heuristic Trust-aware Web Services Composition Approach (CWS_SMA) is proposed. CWS_SMA aims to: (i) compute an optimal trust and QoS-aware web services composition based on the mathematical coordinate system, (ii) improve the composition response time based on a set of cooperative intelligent agents. Eventually, the simulations results show the effectiveness of the proposed solution.
