Abstract
Many types of services appear in a ubiquitous environment promulgated by the evolution of web service technology with the advances in wireless network technologies and mobile computing devices. These services differ according to their location environments, such as home, office, airport, and exhibition. It is required that a different set of services dynamically drops into the mobile user's device depending on their context and the distributed localized services are efficiently managed to seamlessly provide these localized services to the user. This paper proposes an Autonomic Service Composition System (ASCS) to provide useful services to the user with minimal or no effort for service selection. ASCS seamlessly installs the programs of localized services in the user's mobile device. It automatically provides localized services to users that are in the local service zone. Also ASCS can manage distributed localized services remotely and efficiently. ASCS is composed of a Remote Manager, Service Gateway, and Mobile Device. The prototype implementation uses 802.11b Wireless Network and Bundles using the OSGi Framework.
