Abstract
Web Services (WS) are an important tool for the integration of enterprise applications. With a growing set of WS related standards (WS-*), the technology has become increasingly more complicated to configure and manage, even more so when the Quality of Service (QoS) requirements of the system are changing. This paper presents the results of a study conducted on the ability of the major Web Services implementations to adapt to changing QoS attributes. Their shortcomings are then used as motivation for SmartSTEP, a proposal for a more advanced policy-driven automatic configuration solution.
