Integrating Real-World Services in Modern Enterprises
Stamatis Karnouskos, SAP Research, GermanyTalk abstract:
Modern enterprises operate on a global scale and depend on complex
business processes. Business continuity needs to be guaranteed, and
therefore efficient information acquisition, evaluation and interaction
with the real world is of key importance. The infrastructure envisioned
is a heterogeneous one, where millions devices are interconnected, ready
to receive instructions and create event notifications, and where the
most advanced ones depict self-* behavior (e.g. self-management,
self-healing, self-optimization etc) and collaborate. This can lead to a
paradigm change as business logic can now be intelligently distributed
to several layers such as the network or even the device layer creating
new opportunities but also challenges that need to be assessed. Future
Enterprise Services will be in position to better integrate state and
events of the physical world in a timely manner, and hence to lead to
more diverse, highly dynamic and efficient business applications.
