Aims and Scope

In the last years, service-oriented computing and pervasive computing are emerging as the next computing paradigms. Service-oriented computing allows to easily develop, publish and use software functionalities. Pervasive computing rests on mobile and/or embedded devices, available anywhere and anytime, that can potentially provide services. Bringing these two trends together raises the new challenge of integrating/unintegrating, in an application, non-predefined services just discovered in the pervasive environment.

Three main sub-areas of this challenge are tackled in this workshop:

Frameworks/Infrastructures for services integration: different developing frameworks exist and can be used or modified to ease services integration; different deployment infrastructures also exist and can be adapted to take into account the pervasive nature of the environment.

Services interactions: allowing non-predefined services to interact implies to have 'smart' and adaptive matching and communication mechanisms.

Dynamic combining of services: because pervasive environments are highly dynamic, the integration of services needs to be aware of context changes to choose the more appropriate combining/deployment techniques.

List of Topics

We welcome the submission of papers from the full spectrum of issues related to services integration in pervasive environments. The list of topics includes, but is not limited to:

Developing frameworks for services integration

Deployment infrastructures for services integration

Semantic services discovery and matching

Adaptive communication protocols for pervasive services

Context-aware integration

Aspect-oriented approaches in pervasive environments

Services composition in pervasive environments

Integration strategies

Monitoring and management of services integration

Contracting and negotiating approaches of integration

Ontologies of integration

Secure pervasive integration

Paper Submission and Proceedings

Authors are invited to submit original manuscripts, which should be written in English and with a very precise and concise presentation of no more than 6 pages in IEEE double-column format. Authors are invited to send their manuscripts as an attachment (PDF or PS format) by email to the workshop chair at frederic.le-mouel@insa-lyon.fr. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper. The proceedings will be published by the IEEE (please download the copyright form and send it by fax to Kelly Sutton, fax number: 1-520-621-1443 or by email at epd@engr.arizona.edu).
