This chapter provides an overview of the area of service composition. It does so by introducing a generic architecture for service composition and using this architecture to discuss some salient concepts and techniques. The architecture is also used as a framework for providing a critical view into a number of languages, standardization efforts, and tools related to service composition emanating both from academia and industry and to classify them in terms of the concepts and techniques that they incorporate or support (for example, orchestration and dynamic service selection). Finally, the chapter discusses some trends in service-oriented software systems engineering pertaining to service composition.

AbstractRobotic systems are complex, software intensive and heterogeneous composite systems. Software systems engineering and system integration is still a major challenge in robotics. We describe how component based software engineering (CBSE), model-driven software development (MDSD) and domain-specific languages (DSLs) for variability management complement each other in addressing the robotics software challenge. We outline how these approaches pave the way towards a software business ecosystem in robotics. We put a focus onto challenges still being considered as open and worth being addressed next.

The collaboration of cyber physical systems poses many real-world challenges, such as knowledge restriction, resource contention, and communication limitation. Service oriented architecture has been proven effective in solving interoperability issues in the software engineering field. The semantic web service helps to automate service discovery and integration with semantic information. This chapter models cyber physical system functionalities as services to solve the collaboration problem using semantic web services. We extend the existing OWL-S framework to address the natures of the cyber physical systems and their functionalities, which are different from software systems and their functionalities. We also present a case study to illustrate our approach.
