To address the problem of web services selection based on quality, an approach of multi-attribute group decision making algorithm is proposed. Based on the Borda social choice function, the group decision making algorithm aggregates the results of multiple methods with different principles which are used to obtain constantly changing quality of service, thus increasing the confidence to select the most appropriate web service for a special task. The experimental results indicate that the proposed approach has better scalability and can be applied to large-scale distributed service computing environments. It is also shown that the proposed group decision making approach can effectively optimize the services selection and outperforms the random and robin policies. By using this approach, it can extend a method to obtain constantly changing quality of service and construct a synthetic information entity with multi-level knowledge, which guarantees the accuracy of services selection.
