Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are a standard feature of any application that exposes its functionalities to external invokers. APIs can becomposed thus obtaining new programs with new functionalities. However API composition easily becomes a frustrating and time-costly task that hinders API reuse. The issue derives from...

Microservices is an emerging development paradigm where software is obtained by composing autonomous entities, called (micro)services. However, microservice systems are currently developed using general-purpose programming languages that do not provide dedicated abstractions for service composition. Instead, current practice is focused on the...

Microservices are an emerging architectural style advocating for small loosely-coupled services in order to maximize scalability and adaptability. In order to help IT personnel, adaptability can be put (completely or partially) under the responsibility of the system using autonomic techniques, e.g., underpinned by a MAPE-K control loop. This...

Microservices is an emerging paradigm for the development of distributed systems that, originating from Service-Oriented Architecture , focuses on the small dimension, the loose coupling, and the dynamic topology of services. Microservices are particularly appropriate for the development of distributed systems in the Cloud. However, their...
