An Effective Web Service Ranking Algorithm based on Quality of Experience of Users
With the increasing number of Web services, discovering and selecting best services for a client is becoming very significant. While discovering a user can benefit from experiences of other users. This can actually be exhibited through a collaborative filtering mechanism where a user is able to rate a service based on his experiences. A user can be offered services based on the Quality of Experience (QoE) of all the users which have used the given services in past. The service ratings given by all the users can be aggregated into a single list to prepare the overall service ranking which can be rendered to a client to help him in selection of better service. Further if a user wants to see the service ranking on other aspects such as its popularity etc., an aggregate ranking of services is presented using different ranking parameters. This paper presents a client oriented approach of Service rating and rank aggregation based on user oriented QoE based rating as well as popularity.
Keywords: Web Service, Quality of Experience, Service Rating, Service Ranking.
