Conferencia virtual organizada dentro del marco del Máster en Desarrollo de Software del Departamento de Lenguajes y Sistemas Informáticos de la Universidad de Granada y con el apoyo de la Escuela Internacional de Posgrado de la Universidad de Granada, impartida por el doctor Antonio Ruiz Cortés (Universidad de Sevilla).
Resumen:
API consumption is one of the fundamental processes that sustain modern distributed systems. This consumption is typically regulated by quotas, rate limits, and other operational constraints. In practice, these boundaries are often ambiguous or only partially disclosed. Such opacity makes it difficult for clients to operate safely within the defined limits, frequently resulting in degraded “health reputations,” API overloads, and, ultimately, stress across the broader ecosystem. In this talk, we will reexamine the current API consumption model and reinterpret the API as an entity that transforms electrical energy into computational energy. This analog perspective introduces a new framework for clarifying interpretive ambiguities in provider documentation, offers a powerful visual-analytic model for understanding the real dynamics of API interactions, and opens the door to more adaptive and self-regulating digital ecosystems.
Dr. Antonio Ruiz is an AAIA Fellow and an elected member of the Academia Europaea. He has been recognized nationally and internationally for his contributions, with honors including the National Informatics Award (ARITMEL), the FAMA Career Award for Research and Transfer from the University of Seville, and the Most Influential Paper Awards at SPLC and VAMOS. He leads the Unit of Excellence SCORE and the Applied Software Engineering Research Group at the University of Seville since their inception, and served as Deputy Director of the I3US Research Institute). He coordinated the Spanish Network of Excellence in Services Science and Engineering and was President of SISTEDES.
