Web service usage mining: mining for executable sequences
Mohsen Jafari Asbagh, Hassan Abolhassani · 2007
As service world becomes bigger, behavior of people in this world becomes interesting and analysis of usage sequences can yield useful information about web services and the way they are used. Application of data mining and web mining techniques in the field of web services is introduced in order to discover interesting patterns among web services usage and interactions. In this paper, we introduce the concept of the executable sequence of the web service operations and propose an efficient algorithm for mining sequential patterns among these sequences which shows good performance regarding basic sequential pattern discovery algorithm.
