Self-Configurable Systems: Invented by Hollywood?

Presenters short BIO andself-(re)configuration example Professor in Software Engineering; Head of Artificial Intelligence Dep.; Head of MetaIntelligence Research Lab. in Kharkov National University of Radioelectronics (Ukraine) Professor in Distributed Systems; Head of Industrial Ontologies Group in the Department of Mathematical Information Technology, University of Jyvaskyla (Finland)Self-reconfigurable means that the system is capable of utilizing its own system of control to change its overall structural shape.

Current Web (Web 1.0, Syntactic Web) Web 1.0 connects people to the content of static pages published in the World Wide Web.In Web 1.0, a small number of writers create Web pages for a large number of readers. Facilitates Information-to-Information interaction

Human CommunitiesWeb of Humans (Social Web, Web 2.0)Facilitates Human-to-Human interaction

Machines, devices, computers, etc.Web of ThingsFacilitates Machine-to-Machine interaction

Software and ServicesFacilitates Software-to-Software interactionWeb of Services

Pragmatic View to the EnvironmentWhat for and how can I use it?

Everything as a CapabilityWhat for and how can I use it?

Capability: Product vs. Service

Software Product vs. Software-as-a-ServiceSaaS is a software application distribution and delivery model in which an application is hosted by a vendor or a service provider and its capabilities are made available for the use to a requester over the Internet Advantages Accessible from anywhere with an internet connection; No local server installation; Pay per use or subscription based payment methods; Rapid scalability; System maintenance (backup, updates, security, etc) often included in service; Possible security improvements, although users with high security requirements (e.g., large corporations) may find SaaS a security concern; Reliability.

Web ServiceWeb service is a software system designed to support interoperable consumer-provider interaction over a network. They are typically application programming interfaces (API) to remote capabilities (services) or web APIs that can be accessed over a network, such as the Internet, and executed on a remote system hosting the requested services.SOAPWSDLRegistry (UDDI)provides a standard, flexible communications channelprovides a standard, flexible way to describe what and how a Web service does what it doesprovides a standard, flexible way to discover where a Web service is located and where to find more info. about what the Web service does

What is Service-Oriented Architecture ?SOA is the practice of sequestering the core business functions into independent services that dont change frequently. SOA is a tool for software (as a service) integration. Rather than defining an API, SOA defines the interface to remote Web-based services in terms of protocols and functionality. Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is a means of designing and building software. It is a manufacturing model.

Software as a Service (SaaS) is a means of receiving software through an external party to your business similar to telephone or power utilities. It is a sales and distribution model. [J Natoli, Intel]

Why Service-Oriented Architecture ?SOA has many advantages:

Ability to couple or decouple functionality without impacting other parts of the system and architecture. Processes can be orchestrated in a consistent and clear manner.

Cloud Computing: Outsourcing Infrastructure

What is and why Cloud Computing? A pool of abstracted, highly scalable, and managed computational infrastructure capable of hosting end-customer applications and billed by consumption [Forrester Research] Some segments of cloud computing: SaaSSoftware as a ServiceStorage as a Service PaaS Platform as a Service IaaS Infrastructure as a Service

Knowledge and Data CollectionsFacilitates Knowledge-to-Knowledge interactionWeb of Knowledge (Semantic Web, Web 3.0)

Most of the Current Web (dumb links)

Semantic Web(data connected by relationships)

Semantic Web Stack(updated, W3C, 2006)

Linked Data: Bridges between Islands of Data

Shared ontologyWeb users (profiles, preferences)Web access devices and communication networksWeb agents / applications / software componentsExternal world resourcesSmart machines, devices, homes, etc.Technological and business processesSemantic Web: which resources to annotate ?Multimedia resourcesWeb resources / services / DBs / etc.This is just a small part of Semantic Web concern !!!Semantic annotation

Summary: What is Semantic Web ?The Semantic Web is an evolving development of the World Wide Web in which the meaning (semantics) of information and services published on the Web and their inter-relationships are explicitly defined, making it possible for the Web-based software tools, agents, applications and systems to discover, extract and understand Web information resources and capabilities and automatically utilize it. Semantic Technologies are designed to standardize and support interoperability and integration of information content and capabilities (services) of Web-based systems and components at local and global scale.As a software technology, semantic technology encodes meanings separately from data and from application code to enable machines to understand, share and reason with them at execution time.

Why Semantic Web? (Ora Lassila)Semantic Web is about to reach its full potential and it would be too costly for companies not to invest to it (Ora Lassila, Nokia Research Center (Boston), IASW-2005, Jyvaskyla)

Intelligent Agents and ApplicationsFacilitates Intelligence-to-Intelligence interactionWeb of Intelligence (Distributed AI, Web 4.0)Web of intelligent entities (intelligence services), browseable, searchable, composable, self-managed, dynamic, mobile

Summary: What is Agent ?

Intelligent Agents

Software entities that carry out some set of operations on behalf of a user or another program with some degree of independence or autonomy, and in so doing employ some knowledge or representation of a users goals or desires.

IBM, Intelligent Agent Definition

What is an Intelligent Agent?Self-Configurability !ENVIRONMENT

Behavior Events Self-Configuration

Rented Service vs. Proactive Service

Service AgentProactive Web-Services: adding an agent to service platform allows agent-based S2S communicationService PlatformWeb-ServiceGoal-driven behavior

Summary: Why Agents ?Growing complexity of computer systems and networks

Distributed nature of systems (data, software, users, etc.)

Ubiquitous computing, Internet of Things scalability challenges

Need for self-manageability of a complex system

Need for new software development paradigms in designing distributed systems

Agent-based approach meets the above challenges

And finally: Agents are excellent tool for self-configuration !!!

Context views, weights, masks and filtersFacilitates Context-to-Context interactionWeb of Context

Formal relationships, constraints, limitations, laws, mathematical models, defined business logic, communication protocols, goals/tasks definitions, permissions, prohibitions, commitments, conventions and other policies Facilitates Policy-to-Policy interactionWeb of Policies

IWMultiple PoliciesEach industrial resource can theoretically be involved to several processes (organizations, relationships), and appropriate commitments (policies) of each process are applied to it, which can be either supplementary or contradictory. This means that the resource is part of several more complex resources and its role within each of the resource might be different. Modeling such resources can be provided by appropriate resource agent, which can make clones of itself and distribute all necessary roles among them.

Web of Configurations is the Web of partonomy (a classification based on part-of relation; not the same as taxonomy, which is a classification based on similarities). Configuration of an object (parts and their relationships) together with all policies applied to these parts fully describes the object from inside.Facilitates Configuration-to-Configuration interaction

isPartOfProactive ConfigurationPart_of product hierarchy in the ontology results to hierarchical MAS

Web of Presentations is the Web of visualization providers (or metaproviders according to 4i (for-eye) technology). The same content (either static or dynamic, homogeneous or heterogeneous) will be presented (and if needed also filtered and mashed) by different ways by different visualization providers .Facilitates Presentation-to-Presentation interaction

4i Philosophy: Visualization-as-a-Service

Still not enough?According to these visions of future Web, interoperability and collaboration will be possible only within mentioned groups of resources.

However future Web applications and Web-based systems will contain heterogeneous components and therefore will demand support for integration, interoperability, collaboration and mutual service provisioning between resources of different types.

Components of a modern system are not only highly heterogeneous but also globally distributed (SOA) Web 2.0: Web of HumansWeb of ThingsWeb of Software and ServicesWeb 3.0: Web of Knowledge Web 4.0: Web of Intelligence

or some processes and componentsmay be placed and run within huge remote data centers (Cloud Computing)

and some parts of the system may be placed into mobile terminals under supervision of various mobile ecosystems

Smart Mobile Cloud ComputingSmart Space Architecture is based on Semantic Web standards (Metadata, Ontology, Linked Data) and utilizes agent technologies for autonomic coordination and self-managementTrend: Device manufacturers will take the most important content out of a phone the address book, calendar, pictures and messaging and put it in their mobile cloud. The mobile operators support different devices, so they have to play multiple cards (like Google Droid, Apple iPhone).http://mobile-cloud-services.com/

also various systems should enable integrating them to a more complex business logic with other systems

and there should be an easy way to design, use, administrate and reconfigure the system

A system should be open and ready to reconfigure itself when needed (1)

Even a business logic of a system can be imported and reconfigured on-the-fly (1)

Adding a virtual representative to every resource solves the global interoperability problem. Intelligent agent (a kind of software robot) will act, communicate and collaborate on behalf of each Web resourceAgents are needed ! and semantics is needed !Semantic adapterSemantic communicationSemantic business logic

GUN Concept (Industrial Ontologies Group)GUN Global Understanding eNvironment

GUN=Global Environment+Global Understanding =Proactive Self-Managed Semantic Web of Everything

http://www.mit.jyu.fi/ai/OntoGroup/projects.htm http://www.mit.jyu.fi/ai/Industrial_Ontologies_Group_booklet_print.doc

Global Understanding Environment (GUN)Human-to-HumanHuman-to-MachineMachine-to-HumanMachine-to-MachineAgent-to-AgentGUN can be considered as a kind of Ubiquitous Eco-System for Ubiquitous Society, which will be such proactive, self-managed evolutionary Semantic Web of Things, People and Abstractions where all kinds of entities can understand, interact, serve, develop and learn from each other.Software-to-HumanSoftware-to-MachineSoftware-to-SoftwareHuman-to-Software

The semantic wave embraces four stages of internet growth:Web 1.0, was about connecting information ...Web 2.0 is about connecting people. Web 3.0, is starting now and it is about connecting knowledgeWeb 4.0 will come later and it is about connecting intelligences in a ubiquitous web where both people and things can reason and communicate together.[Semantic Wave 2008 , Mills Davis ]Semantic Wave (Web X.0)We may add here:

Web 5.0 will come finally and it is about connecting models in a Global Understanding Environment (GUN), which will be such proactive, self-managed evolutionary Semantic Web of Things, People and Abstractions where all kinds of entities can understand, interact, serve, develop and learn from each other.[Vagan Terziyan]

Bridging Webs for Future Business: "Everything-as-a-User"Vagan Terziyan

OPEN DISCUSSION: Business through Technologies or Technologies through Business

Services as well as products can be consumed not only by humans

Educational Services for Everything?

Wellness and Healthcare Services for Everything ?

Financial Services for Everything ?

Conclusion (EaaS4E beyond Cloud Computing)While the academic and business communities are exited with the new Cloud Computing and SOA slogan: EaaS: Everything-as-a-Service !, our group since 2003 is actively working on GUN Computing and Web 5.0, which much more challenging slogan (based on -projection technological vision) is: EaaS4E: EaaS for Everything, meaning Really Everything-as-a- Proactive, Semantic and Self-Configurable Web Service Provider and Consumer!.
