Checkpoints for Service Level Operations

2014 IEEE International Conference on Services Computing, 2014
The paper introduces the checkpoint notion for the management of service level agreement (SLA) information within dataflow property graphs. The purpose of checkpoints in an SLA graph database is to assist the automated handling of SLA resources with a flexible and expressive data structure, such as a multi-relational graph.

Ensuring Service Level Agreements for Service Workflows

2008 IEEE International Conference on Services Computing, 2008
Specifying and monitoring service level agreements (SLA) has been the subject of intensive research. However, methods of enforcing SLA have not addressed the specific issues of composite services (CS). Our work focuses on the problem of keeping prearranged SLAs for service workflows including workflows supporting long lived transactions (e.g.

Sustainable Service Level Agreements

2011 IEEE International Conference on Services Computing, 2011
Our paper provides a method to manage sustainable service levels in call centers. We defined a service level management process and a related capacity and workforce management that considers Erlang-A operational model for staffing levels. Based on such model, we compute the minimum sustainable price for a service contract based on the fixed service ...
