Towards adaptive service engineering
Abstract
Technical systems are increasingly becoming an imminent part of human life. A growing trend is that systems are embedded in technical devices and working continuously without human intervention. However, this implies that these systems run for a long time without human control. As the environment changes, the systems need to adapt themselves. One approach to address these challenges is the use of service-oriented development paradigms. This paper highlights the challenges and research issues in the context of engineering adaptable, service-oriented systems. Challenges are identified based on the development plane they might appear in (i.e., service-, application-, and infrastructure engineering). We finish by discussing in detail the expected benefits and open research issues.
