Abstract
In recent years, the optimization of multi-objective service composition in distributed systems has become an important issue. Existing work makes a smaller set of Pareto-optimal solutions to represent the Pareto Front (PF). However, they do not support complex mapping of the Pareto-optimal solutions to quality of service (QoS) objective space, thus having limitations in providing a representative set of solutions. We propose an enhanced multi-objective differential evolution algorithm to seek a representative set of solutions with good proximity and distributivity. Specially, we propose a dual strategy to adjust the usage of different creation operators, to maintain the evolutionary pressure toward the true PF. Then, we propose a reference vector neighbor search to have a fine-grained search. The proposed approach has been tested on a real-world dataset that locates a representative set of solutions with proximity and distributivity.
