GOALS
=====

The Future Internet has emerged as a new initiative to pave
a novel infrastructure linked to objects (things) of the real world
to meet the changing global needs of business and society. It offers
internet users a standardized, secure, efficient and trustable
environment, which allows open and distributed access to global
networks, services and information.

To be consistently adopted, the Future Internet will be
enabled through standards-based notations for messaging, semantics,
process and state (such as those RDF, OWL, SOAP, REST and WS
-BPEL), enabling distributed systems and entities to be described
in a scalable and flexible robust dynamic environment. Multi-tenancy
will enable their remote access as Software as a Service (SaaS), by
performing the integration into larger networks of communicating
software (e.g., a mashup or a plug-in to a Cloud platform). Future
Internet applications will have to support the interoperability
between many diverse stakeholders by governing the convergence and
life-cycle of Internet of Contents (IoC), Services (IoS), Things
(IoT), and Networks (IoN). These applications should handle
dynamic and continuous change: for example, in the provisioning of
services, availability of things and contents, connectivity of
networks, diversity of user devices etc. They should also bear in
mind that the Future Internet should provide a better experience
for the user journey, with personalized and context -aware contents,
adapted to their preferences, and where users also play an
active part in creating or sharing services.

There is a need for both researchers and practitioners to develop
platforms made up of adaptive Future Internet applications. In this
sense, the emergence and consolidation of Service-Oriented
Architectures (SOA), Cloud Computing and Wireless Sensor Networks
(WSN) give benefits, such as flexibility, scalability, security,
interoperability, and adaptability, for building these
applications. Although there already are emerging solutions to host
software services and data on remote computers and create
public sensor networks by using these technologies; the
mentioned solutions employ simple technical approaches related to
replication strategies to ensure availability and to achieve a load
-balancing scalability. Future Internet systems however, will
also need to sense and respond to a huge amount of signals
sourced from different entities in real -time. In this context, an
event would be detected if, for example, there is non-existence of
a signal which normally occurs, affecting the execution of other
services. These events would be produced by IoT and processed in the
IoS. In order to build business level events Complex Event
Processing (CEP) may be used. CEP allows detecting complex and
meaningful events and inferring valuable knowledge for end users.
The main advantage of using CEP to process complex events is that
the latter can be identified and reported in real time, reducing the
latency in decision making, unlike the methods used in traditional
software for event analysis. Event-Driven Service-Oriented
Architectures (ED-SOA or SOA 2.0) are also being used to respond to
events that occur as a result of business processes.

The first edition of WAS4FI was held in conjunction with ServiceWave
2011, in Poznan, Poland, on October 28th 2011. The second edition was
held in conjunction with ESOCC 2012, in Bertinoro, Italy, on
September 19th 2012. In this third edition, WAS4FI again aims to
bring together the community at ESOCC and addresses different
aspects of adaptive Future Internet applications, emphasizing
the importance of governing the convergence of contents, services,
things and networks in order to achieve building platforms for
efficiency, scalability, security and flexible adaptation. In this
workshop, we cover the foundations of the aforementioned technologies
as well as new emerging proposals for their potential in Future
Internet services. To promote collaboration, WAS4FI has a highly
interactive format with short technical sessions complemented
by discussions on Adaptive Services in the Future Internet
Applications.


TOPICS
======

WAS4FI encourages a multidisciplinary perspective and welcomes
papers that address challenges of Future Internet applications.
Participation of researchers and practitioners from academia and
industry are encouraged in order to promote cross-community
interactions and thus avoiding disconnection between these
groups. Topics of the workshop include, but are not limited to:

- Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA)
- Cloud Computing Environments (IaaS, PaaS and SaaS)
- Services Mashups Development
- Service Discovery, Semantic Web and Ontology
- Secure Data Management and Adaptation, Privacy and Trust

- Context-Aware, Mobile and Pervasive Adaptive Services on the Cloud
- Emerging Internet of Things Business Models
- Business Models for Quality of Services (QoS) and Cost of Services
(CoS)
- Adaptation Contract and Service Level Agreements (SLA)
- Service Adaptive Composition, Orchestration and Choreography
- Dynamic Adaptation of Services on the Cloud
- Dynamic Internet Content Delivery
- Run-Time Monitoring, Services Evolution and Maintenance
- Model-Driven SOA and Service Systems Deployment
- Sensor Web Enablement and Web-Connected Devices (Sensor Web,
smartphone, RFID)
- Services Computing in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) and Mobile
Ad-hoc Networks (MANET)
- Service-Oriented Middleware Deployment for Sensor as a Service
- Software Engineering for Sensors in the Internet of Things (IoT)
- Formal Methods in Services Computing
- SOA Reference Models and Frameworks to Adaptive Services
- Event-Driven Service-Oriented Architectures (ED-SOA or SOA 2.0)
- Complex Event Processing

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
=======================

Authors are invited to submit original, previously unpublished
research papers in two categories. Both regular papers (must not
exceed 12 pages) and short papers (must not exceed 6 pages) should
be written in English, strictly following LNCS format. Please,
submit papers via the WAS4FI conference management tool
