The Internet of Services and the Internet of Things are major
building blocks of the Future Internet. The digital enterprise of
the future is based not only on mobile, social, and cloud
technologies, but also on semantic technologies and the future
Internet of Everything. Semantic technologies now enable mass
customization for the delivery of goods and services that meet
individual customer needs and tastes with near mass production
efficiency and reliability. This is creating a competitive
advantage in the industrial economy, the service economy, and the
emerging data economy, leading to smart products, smart services,
and smart data, all adaptable to specific tasks, locations,
situations, and contexts of smart spaces. Such technologies allow
us to describe, revise, and adapt the characteristics, functions,
processes, and usage patterns of customization targets on the basis
of machine-understandable content representation that enables
automated processing and information sharing between human and
software agents.
This book explains the principal achievements of the Theseus
research program, one of the central programs in the German
government's Digital 2015 initiative and its High-Tech Strategy
2020. The methods, toolsets, and standards for semantic
technologies developed during this program form a solid basis for
the fourth industrial revolution (Industrie 4.0), the hybrid
service economy, and the transformation of big data into useful
smart data for the emerging data economy.
The contributing authors are leading scientists and engineers,
representing world-class academic and industrial research teams,
and the ideas, technologies, and representative use cases they
describe in the book derive from results in multidisciplinary
fields, such as the Internet of Services; the Semantic Web, and
semantic technologies, knowledge management, and search; user
interfaces, multimodal interaction, and visualization; machine
learning and data mining; and business process support,
manufacturing, automation, medical systems, and integrated service
engineering.
The book will be of value to both researchers and practitioners
in these domains."
