Foreword
The new computing environment enabled by advances in service oriented architectures, mashups, and cloud computing will consist of service spaces comprising data, applications, infrastructure resources distributed over the Web. This environment embraces a holistic paradigm in which users, services, and resources establish on-demand interactions, possibly in real-time, to realise useful experiences. Such interactions obtain relevant services that are targeted to the time and place of the user requesting the service and to the device used to access it. The benefit of such environment originates from the added value generated by the possible interactions in a large scale rather than by the capabilities of its individual components separately. This offers tremendous automation opportunities in a variety of application domains including execution of forecasting, office tasks, travel support, intelligent information gathering and analysis, environment monitoring, healthcare, e-business, community based systems, e-science and e-government. A key feature of this environment is the ability to dynamically compose services to realise user tasks. While recent advances in service discovery, composition and Semantic Web technologies contribute necessary first steps to facilitate this task, the benefits of composition are still limited to take advantages of large-scale ubiquitous environments. The main stream composition techniques and technologies rely on hum
