Introduction
With the ever-increasing popularity of service computing
technology, a wide range of computational resources or services
(e.g., news, food and commodities) are emerging rapidly on the Web
(Dastjerdi et al., 2016; Tao et al., 2014), which benefit the
development, deployment and maintenance of lightweight
service-oriented business systems significantly (Jula et al.,
2014; Wang et al., 2014; Wang et al., 2016). Through selecting or
composing appropriate web services, an enterprise or organization
can accelerate its system development, optimize system
performances and gain more profits (Liu et al., 2017; Shih et al.,
2019; Zhang et al., 2016).
The recently emerged new computing paradigms (e.g., cloud, edge
and fog), on one hand, widen the scope of applications of services
computing technology (Deng et al., 2014; Wang et al., 2017; Mahmud
et al., 2018), on the other hand bring additional difficulties and
challenges in terms of resource load (Vaquero et al., 2014; Shi et
al., 2016), energy cost (Roman et al., 2018), link switch (Zhang
et al., 2018), quality optimization (Guan et al., 2018; Gong et
al., 2018), and so on. Therefore, it becomes a necessity to
combine the advantages of both the services computing technology
and the cloud/edge/fog computing paradigms. This special session
aims to highlight the cutting-edge research and applications
related to the “Service Computing Innovations in the Cloud, Edge
and Fog Environment”.
