Abstract
Time is an important non-functional parameter to consider in service compositions, especially in environments where a service must be provided before a deadline. In this paper service composition takes service execution time into account and, to provide the composition with more reliability, considers the workload and availability of service providers. Furthermore, negotiation protocols are used to add flexibility between clients and providers that participate in the service composition. Negotiation protocols increase the chances of reaching an agreement by allowing both, providers and clients, to exchange their proposals in order to adjust the negotiation terms related to service execution time.
