A New Deliberation Mechanism for Service-Oriented Operating Systems

Cloud and Service-Oriented Computing have become successful paradigms to use all the power that the network has brought to Operating Systems. In particular, the multi-agent systems paradigm and service-oriented computing offers new ideas for the development of more intelligent and effective OS´s, which would benefit the end-user due to the advantages of both technologies. The benefits that we present in this work are how to improve the security in transactions between clients and providers over the cloud and how these transactions can be done taking into account temporal constraints. This is done either to obtain a result before a deadline, or simply to improve the quality of the result. In this work we present a deliberation engine for an OS execution model based on goals with temporal and security considerations.
