Historic Document: Service Science – Issue Paper V.1.0

Historic Document: Services Science
An IBM Global Team Issue Paper v.1.0

ISSUE
While manufacturing continues to play a vital role in the US economy, it is the service sector that dominates in the production of economic output and employment. Services include everything from professional service workers (medical, financial, consulting, IT) to food service employees, to transportation providers, fitness trainers and manicurists. An increased proportion of the manufacturing activity is linked to services due to outsourcing of information processing functions, supply chain integration, customer support and administrative functions. The common trait is that the product is not tangible—instead it is a service that is performed.

BACKGROUND
Given the prevailing role of services in advanced economies and the mounting global footprint of service activities, a greater research priority should be given to understanding how innovation works in the service sector and how it contributes to national competitiveness and economic growth. Service businesses also need to know more about methodologies for transforming business processes and the necessary integration of processes, technologies, and the people managing and acting upon them. Manufacturing represents just 17% of the US economy, yet we’re devoting nearly two-thirds of our research to it. Over 71% of our economy is represented by services, but we are investing only a 37% of our research investment to it. A better alignment is in order. To know more about this complex subject a new discipline in the services sciences is needed to develop the intellectual basis for solving problems in business process design, organizational transformation, workforce training, integration of services with manufacturing and developing technologies that have the potential to spur entirely new economic growth paths.

Diagram:

IBM POSITION
1. Encourage government R&D funding agencies to address the problems involved in transforming business services and what is required to develop improved innovation models, business methods, innovation performance metrics and the necessary research/technology roadmaps. The effort should be global in scope, multidisciplinary and scientifically rigorous.
2. Support creation of a new academic discipline that combines and is taught in schools of business, engineering and computer science. The approach will require that scientists and business practice and planning intersect.

CFP: Service Science and Systems (SSS’2012)

CALL FOR PAPERS
The Fifth IEEE International Workshop on
Service Science and Systems (SSS’2012)

URL: http://compsac.cs.iastate.edu/workshop_details.php?id=43&ySSS 2012 – cfp

A joint event with COMPSAC’12
The 36th Annual IEEE International Computer Software
and Applications Conference

Izmir, Turkey, July 16 – 20, 2012

==========================================================

GOAL OF THE WORKSHOP:

Service sector forms a growing portion of world economy, accounting at the moment under 50% and around 70% of the total value adds in the developing and developed countries, respectively. Yet, this sector is still lagging behind other industry sectors, such as manufacturing, in terms of overall productivity. The advent of the Internet shortens the distance between service providers, service suppliers, service consumers which, coupled with the ever-increasing computing power, has become a key driver in brewing a new wave of business and technical models, promising to boost the productivity in the service sector.

A full End-to-End (E2E) service cycle covers stages of service creation, marketing, delivery, management and evolution. It is only recently that the importance of examining the scale, complexity and interdependence of service systems, in the lights of globalisation, demographic changes and technology developments, have been highlighted, calling for actions from education, research, business and government alike. A first symposium on service Science, Management and Engineering and a first international conference on service science were held in Cambridge (2007) and Beijing (2008) respectively.

Service science is still in its infancy, existing main driving forces in this area are from traditional hardware and software vendors who, while possessing tremendous knowledge and experience in computing, are restricted in the width and depth of visions in service applications. This workshop intends to fill the gap; in particular, it examines key stakeholders in the service cycles and sees how modern technologies can help boost productivity of the stakeholders.

Following the successful running of BINDIS’08,  BINDIS’09, BINDIS’10 and SSS’11 that were held in Turku, Seattle, Seoul and Munich, we now continue to run the fifth in a series in Izmir, Turkey, 2012.

The workshop will act as a unique forum to

– Review key stakeholders, activities in service cycles,
– Identify relevant modern technologies that can help boost service cycles,
– Examine novel service systems and applications in a variety of service industries.

THEME AND SCOPE OF THE WORKSHOP:

The workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners to share research results, advances and practical experience related to service science and systems, with focus on tackling barriers towards maintainability, scalability, reliability, interoperability, comprehensibility, usability, controllability, sustainability, profitability and productivity in the service cycles. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

– Service creation and evolution
o SaaS, PaaS, IaaS
o Service repository and reuse
o Service oriented architecture, analysis and design
o Service conceptual modelling, composition and orchestration
o Service design and testing methodologies
– Service marketing
o Market detection and segmentation
o Demand forecasting and resource planning
o Service directory, semantics, pragmatics, markup and matchup
o Social network and recommendation
o Economic models for service market
– Service delivery, management and improvement

CFP: Special issue of IEEE Internet Computing on “Future Internet Protocols”

Dear Colleagues,
We are still looking for submissions, even if you did not give us a
notice of interest by the 15th.  Please also note that the CFP
includes application-level protocols: I would like to emphasize these
three CFP bullets:
. Policies and protocols for cloud computing and enterprise management
. New technologies for policy and protocol enforcement
. New protocol support requirements for likely future applications

The first bullet would include any novel support for cloud support
based on some kind of protocol necessary for a distributed approach.
The second includes technologies for checking that protocols meet
policy requirements in systems.
The last bullet item is fairly inclusive and would include, e.g.,
networked systems that acheive homeostasis based upon cellular automata.

Best regards,
Charles Petrie

Future Internet Protocols

Final submissions due: 1 March 2012
Publication date: November/December 2012

Please email the guest editors a brief description of
the article you plan to submit:
Charles Petrie <petrie@stanford.edu>
Oliver Spatscheck <spatsch@research.att.com>
(Please use this subject line
CFP: Special issue of IEEE Internet Computing on “Future Internet Protocols”  (keyword: Berlin))

The Internet is based upon a set of layered protocols, their servers,
and architectures that support them. The Internet has now evolved
far beyond the original TCP/IP protocol and architecture (see
Peering column by Oliver.) Application protocols have similarly
evolved as evidenced by HTML.5.   Future applications and basic
usage will require significant changes, however, a clean slate
approach is not likely to be adopted making a feasible migration path
a must for any new proposal.

This issue explores the current and near-future evolution of the
Internet in terms of its supporting protocols and policies.  Topics
include new Internet and application protocols, and application
requirements.  Examples of topics include:

. High-latency tolerant TCP (also for mobile environments)
. TCP replacement protocols
. Beyond HTML 5.0
. Virtualization of Networks
. Requirements for app management
. Smart Routers
. Policies and protocols for cloud computing and enterprise management
. New technologies for policy and protocol enforcement
. New protocol support requirements for likely future applications

Submissions should report results, with strong technical content, that
make novel contributions to Internet engineering or science and show
an evaluation of the results.  Proposals for new systems must at least
be prototyped and evaluated, and be so promising that the relatively
early work warrants publication.  Speculative proposals will be
rejected by the editors and not be reviewed. (Controversial speculation
should be submitted to one of our columns, such as “Peering”.)

For questions, please contact the guest editors of this
special issue.

All submissions must be original manuscripts of fewer than 5,000
words, focused on Internet technologies and implementations. Longer
submissions will be rejected and not reviewed.
