SOCNE 2014

8th International Workshop on Service-Oriented Cyber-Physical Systems in Converging Networked Environments

in conjunction with

ETFA 2014 - 19th International Conference on
Emerging Technologies & Factory Automation

16-19 September 2014

Deadline for submission of regular papers: May 30, 2014
Workshop day: September 16, 2014

Aim: This workshop encourages communication and exchange of ideas between
industrial and academic researchers and developers in the field of
cyber-physical systems, service-oriented architectures, and heterogeneous
networked environments. It follows the whole path from system engineering
over system implementation to system testing and leverages the discussion
about industrial practices and future trends.

The workshop is focused on the following subjects, but not restricted to:

Topics

Networked Embedded Systems, CPS, IoT, SOA

• Service-orientation in CPS and IoT
• Technologies for interworking smart objects
• Embedded web services
• SOA for/on/in devices and embedded systems
• Device centric SOAs and RESTful environments
• Real-time embedded networked applications and systems
• Web services and middleware for networked embedded systems
• Resource constrained and low power lossy networks
• Scalability, reliability, safety, and security aspects
• Lightweight security suites for the Internet of Things
• SOA in the Internet and the Internet of Things
• Sensor clouds

Service Computing

• Infrastructure as a service (Iaas)
• Platform as a service (Paas)
• Software as a service (Saas)
• High Performance Computing as a service
• Cloud Services

Service platforms for cyber-physical systems

• Service platforms for cyber-physical systems
• Service platforms for smart grid, smart traffic and smart cars, energy management, energy metering, and electro mobility
• Service platforms for smart home, smart building and smart cities
• Service platforms for ambient assisted living medical, clinics and healthcare systems
• Service platforms for process, factory, and industrial applications
• Enterprise architecture integration and product lifecycle management
