This paper focuses on providing an overview of the research challenges that have been identified toward the end of the S-Cube network in the area of service engineering. These challenges concern the need for agility and dynamicity of the development process for service-based applications, the importance of focusing on proper approaches to support migration of legacy application into service-based...
The global scale and distribution of companies have changed the economy and dynamics of businesses. Web-based collaborations and cross-organizational processes typically require dynamic and context-based interactions between people and services.

Mixed service-oriented systems composed of human actors and software services build up complex interaction networks. Without any coordination, such systems may exhibit undesirable properties due to unexpected behavior. Also, communications and interactions in such networks are not preplanned by top-down composition models. Consequently, the management of service-oriented applications is difficult...
Context-awareness has become a desired key feature of today's mobile systems, yet, its realization still remains a challenge. On the one hand, mobile computing provides great potential for adaptations based on sensed contextual information. On the other hand, the lack of dependability in mobile networks hampers an efficient provision of this information to requesting clients. In this paper we present...
