  Recent years have witnessed the rapid development of service-oriented
computing technologies. The boom of Web services increases the selection burden
of software developers in developing service-based systems (such as mashups).
How to recommend suitable follow-up component services to develop new mashups
has become a fundamental problem in service-oriented software engineering. Most
of the existing service recommendation approaches are designed for mashup
development in the single-round recommendation scenario. It is hard for them to
update recommendation results in time according to developers' requirements and
behaviors (e.g., instant service selection). To address this issue, we propose
a deep-learning-based interactive service recommendation framework named DLISR,
which aims to capture the interactions among the target mashup, selected
services, and the next service to recommend. Moreover, an attention mechanism
is employed in DLISR to weigh selected services when recommending the next
service. We also design two separate models for learning interactions from the
perspectives of content information and historical invocation information,
respectively, as well as a hybrid model called HISR. Experiments on a
real-world dataset indicate that HISR outperforms several state-of-the-art
service recommendation methods in the online interactive scenario for
developing new mashups iteratively.
