Web Services have enabled businesses and
organizations to collaborate without platform
interoperability and programming language barriers.
Quality of Service (QoS) of a web service is an
important factor that differentiates similar services
offered by different service providers. Such a measure
would allow web service clients to choose and bind to
a suitable web service at run time (based on QoS
attributes). Some researchers have proposed the
integration of the QoS measure on the web service
directory server. However, a mechanism to maintain
the QoS metric has not been defined yet. In this paper,
we propose such a mechanism. This mechanism
involves automated measurement of QoS attributes on
both the client and provider sides, when the service is
being used, and updating the QoS-aware web services
directory with this information. We describe a
prototype we developed for this purpose and present
the results of using this prototype for gathering QoS
measurements at run time.
