  • CS Seminar Series: Nour Ali (University of Brighton, UK) - Self-Adaptation to Resources in Service Oriented Architecture

    Mon, Sep 28, 2015 @ 02:00 PM - 03:30 PM

    Thomas Lord Department of Computer Science

    Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars


    Speaker: Nour Ali, University of Brighton, UK

    Talk Title: Self-Adaptation to Resources in Service Oriented Architecture

    Series: CS Seminar Series

    Abstract: Pervasive and distributed systems continuously change their environments and resources (e.g. battery or bandwidth). Mobile applications require different services when they enter or exit environments and as their resources change. In this seminar, we present a service oriented architectural approach that supports self-adaptation to changes in resources and location topology when mobility occurs, by reconfiguring the software architecture at runtime. The location topology and mobility primitives are inspired from ambient calculus. Our approach considers ambients to be autonomic elements that can manage elements located in them to their environment and provide them with new services suited to the available resources when mobility occurs. The seminar will also present the background research that has been undertaken in the areas of mobile ambient software architecture as well as architecture recovery and consistency.

    Biography: Nour Ali is a Principal Lecturer at the University of Brighton, UK. She holds a PhD in Software Engineering from the Polytechnic University of Valencia-Spain for her work in Ambients in Aspect-Oriented Software Architecture. She is Fellow of UK Higher Education Academy (HEA). Her research area encompasses service oriented architecture, software architecture, model driven engineering, adaptive software and distributed and mobile systems. In 2014, the University of Brighton granted her a Rising Stars award in Service Oriented Architecture Recovery and Consistency. She is currently leading the Knowledge Transfer Partnership project for migrating legacy software systems using architecture centric approach. She has also been the Principal Investigator for an Enterprise Ireland Commercialisation Project in Architecture Recovery and Consistency and co-investigator in several funded projects. Dr. Ali is the Applications Track Chair for 2015 IEEE International Conference on Mobile Services (MS 2015) and serves on the Programme Committee for several conferences (e.g., ICWS, ICMS, HPCC etc) and journals (e.g., JSS, or JIST). She has co-chaired and co-organized several workshops such as the IEEE International Workshop on Engineering Mobile Service Oriented Systems (EMSOS) and the IEEE Workshop on Future of Software Engineering for/in the Cloud. She was the co-editor of the JSS Special Issue on the Future of Software Engineering for/in the Cloud published in 2013 and Agile and lean service-oriented development: foundations, theory, and practice published in 2012.
