Service-based Platform Concepts for Mobile Third-Party Applications in the Internet of Things

制造、汽车或物流等应用领域的复杂流程在很大程度上依赖于嵌入式系统。然而，当前的方法通常是特定于领域的，并且是封闭的环境。为了使第三方能够提供跨系统的增值服务，需要使用更开放的方法和安全可靠的通信接口。此外，智能手机或平板电脑等移动设备必须无缝集成到相关的控制和数据流中。该项目旨在开发面向服务的平台概念，以使用移动组件在服务互联网领域实现灵活且经济高效的跨系统第三方应用程序。基于服务的平台应支持不同系统之间可靠、安全和自适应的数据和控制流。尤其要明确支持多层服务等级协议的规范、协商、监控和适配。移动设备应作为用户交互、决策和数据获取的集成主动组件。对整体方法的评估将基于来自汽车领域的用例，以及来自物流领域的次要用例。

Complex processes in application areas such as manufacturing, automotive or logistics are heavily based on embedded systems. Current approaches, however, are usually domain-specific and are closed environments. For enabling system-spanning added-value services by third parties, more open approaches with secure and reliable communication interfaces are required. Moreover, the mobile devices such as smartphones or tablets have to be integrated seamlessly into associated control and data flows.This project aims at the development of service-oriented platform concepts for flexible and cost-efficient, system-spanning third-party applications in the area of the internet of services using mobile components. A service-based platform shall enable reliable, secure and adaptive data and control flow between different systems. In particular, the specification, negotiation, monitoring, and adaptation of multi-layer service level agreements shall be supported explicitly. Mobile devices shall act as integrated active components for user interaction, decision making and data acquisition. The evaluation of the overall approach will be based on a use case from the automotive area, with a secondary use case from the logistics field.
