Aim and topics

Smart and reliable service interoperability and composition across heterogeneous platforms and networking environments build the foundation for added-value services. Their key requirement is seamless, well-defined, and potentially cross-sectorial interoperability among stakeholders on application-, service-, and device level. Interoperability has become a competitive factor for many industrial branches such as automotive, aerospace, energy, healthcare, or factory and building automation. At the same time, it serves as an enabler for cross-domain business, e.g. electro mobility, smart grid, or even cooperative engineering.

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

From this perspective, the workshop is focused on (but not restricted to) the following subjects:

Architectures and Design Principals

Platforms, frameworks and tool support
Configuration & management
Creation, deployment, life cycle management
Semantic web services & ontology
Decentralized/peer-to-peer architectures for device/application networking
Micro-Services

Service platforms for CPS

Service platforms for cyber-physical systems
Service platforms for smart-* (e.g. smart grid, smart home, smart building, smart cities, smart mobility,...)
Service platforms for ambient assisted living, medical, clinics and healthcare
Service platforms for process, factory, and industrial applications, Industry 4.0
Enterprise architecture integration and product lifecycle management
