Abstract
Whilst the vision of on-demand computing is very seductive it engenders its own
technical challenges including: design, development and deployment of ubiquitous
utility services, and low-cost, low-skills and low-latency services re-assembly for
lifetime management runtime due to complex and unpredicted service discovery,
interoperation and adaptation. In this paper we argue for the need of a new model for
on-demand ubiquitous services’ activation through a polyarchical middleware, which
enables on-demand composition of software applications regardless of service
standards and middleware used. This paper will present early results of a research
study into the development of a framework for ubiquitous service
invocation/activation, which provides an abstract model for on-demand ubiquitous
service composition and execution. This proposed polyarchical middleware could be
used for on-demand wireless application service composition, which include ad-hoc
service discovery, assembly using virtual containers, invocation and adaptation. The
paper will finish with a critical review of our model and concluding remarks followed
by an indication of further work
