“…With the increase in hyper-connectivity as well as in the intelligence / autonomy of machines and systems, it is necessary to further invest on regulatory frameworks coping with issues of responsibility, ethics, and compliance [11] among all entities involved in the CNs. For instance, in [106] there is some discussion on liability and "responsibility borders" in the case of multi-supplier systems-of-systems, but these issues need further developments as we move towards hybridization of CNs.…”

The last two decades have witnessed considerable boost in emergence of a networked society, reflecting the increasing growth in hyperconnectivity among the organizations, people, smart machines, and intelligent systems. This trend was enabled by advances in ICT and more specifically in computer networking. In this context, new forms of coworking and collaboration in networks, composed of distributed, autonomous, and heterogeneous entities have emerged, which first led to the formation of Collaborative Networks (CN) as a new discipline, and then followed by series of milestones leading to its gradual evolution.Nowadays CNs play a key role in the ongoing process of digital transformation in industry and services. Although it is relatively young, a number of "generations" can be identified through the last decades for the CN discipline.We are now at the beginning of what can be identified as the Collaborative Networks 4.0, characterized by features such as: hybridization in CNs, collaboration between humans and intelligent autonomous systems, collaborative distributed cognitive systems, reflecting on collaborative accountability, handling ethics and coping with risks and disruptions faced in CNs, managing large amounts of collaborative data, monetization of collaboration, creating a collaboration culture, supporting collaboration creativity, handling mass collaboration, and supporting collaborative value creation through new business models, among others.The IFIP WG 5.5, through its annual conference the PRO-VE, which is now in its 21st edition, has played a determinant role, along these two decades. It has contributed to shaping, promoting, and extending the CN research and development community and its practices; thus, consolidating this area, and identifying and introducing new directions and preserving it as an active research agenda.

“…The technology selection can also use the Java Management Extension (JMX) protocol and the respective instrumentation modeling using Mbean to be managed by JMX agents. The monitoring of technology artifacts is of paramount importance to achieve reliable integrated systems, as discussed in the ISoS framework reliability [11]. OPE organizes the computational logic making a Service entity.…”

Managing heterogeneous software and hardware artifacts from multiple suppliers is a complex and challenging process. The integration of sensors, actuators, and their controllers, modeled as IoT elements, also presents significant challenges. Typically, a vendor supplies one or more parts, each one with its proprietary interface, which may raise vendor lock-in and supplier dependencies that can compromise the replacement of some of the artifacts by equivalent ones from competing vendors. The research presented in this paper addresses such challenges in the context of the SITL-IoT project aiming at transforming an industrial agri-food environment towards an open, integrated system-of-systems. We present and discuss a reference implementation of a collaborative platform to simplify the management of different artifacts, supplied by alternative suppliers, modeled as services. More specifically, the concepts of ISystem (Informatic System), CES (Cooperation Enabled Service), and Service are used to manage the different elements that compose an agrifood environment transparently and uniformly. We argue that the adopted model simplifies the collaboration among technology suppliers along the life cycle maintenance and evolution of their enabled products.
