Architectures and Infrastructures
Towards the Internet of Services
The Internet of Services is a vision of the Internet of the Future where organisations and individuals can find software as services on the Internet, combine them, and easily adapt them to their specific context. Users should be able to use software services that do exactly what they need. The Internet of Services will consist of virtualisation technology that will make network, storage and computing resources available. Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand access to a shared pool of these configurable computing resources and services. Services use these resources and will be built using SOA (service oriented architectures) principles.
Research
Objective 1.2 "Internet of Services, Software and Virtualisation" and "Service and Software Architectures, Infrastructures and Engineering" of the FP7-ICT Programme for Research and Development is funding research to realise the "Internet of Services" vision.
More information about
- The fifth call for proposals
- Ongoing FP7 projects
- Many of the FP7 projects contribute to the Future Internet Assembly, a meeting place for projects of Challenge 1, researching the Future Internet
- Another area of attention is Open Source software
- The projects are building on research carried out during the FP6-IST programme in the area of Software and Services and Grids
Policy
European Industry should benefit from the opportunities that the "Internet of Services" brings. This might require policy actions at the European or Member State level. Two lines of work have started:
- a consultation on improving the competitive position of the European Software industry
- a study to assess the economic and social impact of Software and Software based Services
