Service Plan of Service Composition in Pervasive Computing: A Systematic Literature Review

Abstract

Service composition made by arranging set of services to achieve specific goals from user task. The steps taken in building service composition are obtained from the service life cycle, consisting of definition, selection, deployment, and execution phase. Service composition is more complicated in pervasive computing since service is created by a simple task deployed in distributed devices. The devices in the pervasive environment can be a service itself. Several challenges are faced in making service composition in pervasive computing, such as limited system knowledge and resource, unpredictable service availability, and heterogeneity. Hence, it requires service plan that can mapping user requests containing the planning goal and the composition corresponds to the plan. This planning process is carried out by the transformation of user requirements and business processes. In this paper, we adopt systematic literature review (SLR) and define some research question (RQ) to research in various database journal. Twenty-two articles were selected based on the search result and then reviewed. We extracted and summarized service composition using planning approach and find the implementation area in pervasive computing.
