“…As such, this abstract integration of devices based on WSs can be realised as we have demonstrated; details can be found in [12,13]). This may indeed result to significant benefits as we also show in an initial evaluation by [2]. Such benefits include cost reduction, improved performance and new opportunities but also potential drawbacks.…”

“…This increased granularity of intelligence distributed among loosely coupled intelligent physical objects facilitates the adaptability and reconfigurability of the system, allowing it to meet business demands not foreseen at the time of design and providing real business benefits as we depict in [2]. It is expected that in the future, business applications will heavily interact with the "real world" via the optimal timely exploitation of the information offered by devices [13].…”

“…The SOCRADES approach targets these business needs by utilizing the SOA paradigm at the device level, which enables the adoption of a unifying technology for all levels of the enterprise. This can enable a wide range of potential business opportunities but is also associated with challenges as we identify in [2].…”

“…Thus, the system change cannot keep pace with business changes and the organization can not maintain its competitive edge: the business cannot respond quickly enough to changes in market demand. This can be prevented when adopting SOA-based architectures as we analyse in greater detail in [2].…”

Business continuity and agility form the core modus operandi of modern global enterprises. Complex business processes performed in highly distributed production systems need to be efficiently integrated with the shop floor, which needs to be able to fully respond to dynamic adaptations and sophisticated interactions with the enterprise systems in a timely manner. As the new generation of industrial devices coming to the shop floors features greatly improved storage, computing and networking capabilities, the factory of the future transforms itself to a system of systems, where of large numbers of heterogeneous networked embedded devices dynamically exchange information, complement each other's functionality and provide new innovative capabilities that satisfy the emergent dynamic business requirements. This new breed of networked embedded devices goes beyond simple passive roles, e.g. being able to store and report information about themselves and their physical surroundings once queried, but execute complex computations and global logic locally, as well as dynamically adapt to fulfil goaldriven conditions. They communicate in an open interoperable way, form cooperative peer-to-peer networks and strongly interact with enterprise systems. This leads to highly modular, manageable and dynamic factories that will be able to adapt and optimize their behaviour to achieve the business goals pursued in a cross-layer collaborative way.

Theory and Practice of Logic Programming

New generations of distributed systems are opening novel perspectives for logic programming (LP): on the one hand, service-oriented architectures represent nowadays the standard approach for distributed systems engineering; on the other hand, pervasive systems mandate for situated intelligence. In this paper we introduce the notion of Logic Programming as a Service (LPaaS) as a means to address the needs of pervasive intelligent systems through logic engines exploited as a distributed service. First we define the abstract architectural model by re-interpreting classical LP notions in the new context; then we elaborate on the nature of LP interpreted as a service by describing the basic LPaaS interface. Finally, we show how LPaaS works in practice by discussing its implementation in terms of distributed tuProlog engines, accounting for basic issues such as interoperability and configurability.
