abstract = {This paper describes a cloud-based platform that offers evidence-based, personalised interventions powered by Artificial Intelligence to help support efficient remote monitoring and clinician-driven guidance to people over 65 who suffer or are at risk of hearing loss, cardiovascular diseases, cognitive impairments, balance disorders, and mental health issues. This platform has been developed within the SMART-BEAR integrated project to power its large-scale clinical pilots and comprises a standards-based data harmonisation and management layer, a security component, a Big Data Analytics system, a Clinical Decision Support tool, and a dashboard component for efficient data collection across the pilot sites.},

abstract = {Cloud mashup is a technique for the seamless composition of SaaS applications from several sources into a single integrated solution. This paper presents a general approach for automatically composing applications and services deployed over the Cloud. The proposed approach implies to encapsulate distributed processes into smart and autonomic entities, namely cloud capabilities. Despite the lack of a central mashup server, these processes are able to autonomously organize in order to establish different ways to address the desired result. The approach uses a couple of languages for describing respectively the mashup logic in terms of goals and the available functionalities in terms of capabilities. The explicit decoupling between user's goals and capabilities provides the system the freedom to generate the orchestration plan at run-time, according to the contextual state. An industrial case study, conducted in for a scientific project, has provided the conditions for evaluating the running example of a B2B business process for a fashion enterprise.},

The process is driven by user requirements that are made explicit though a goal specification language. The self-configuration module dynamically organizes a mashup application by composing existing cloud application as atomic brick to compose. Finally the orchestrator module is responsible of a seamless enacting of the selected cloud applications. A prototype has been implemented as a multi agent system for implementing the business process for a company working for fashion firms.},

abstract = {One of the current challenges of Service Oriented Engineering is to provide instruments for dealing with dynamic and unpredictable user requirements and environment. Traditional approaches based on workflow for orchestrating services provide little support for configuring at run-time the flow of activities. This paper presents a general approach for composing and orchestrating services in a self-organization fashion. User requirements are made explicit in the system by a goal specification language. These can be injected into the running orchestration system that is able to autonomously and contextually reason on them. Therefore, the system dynamically organizes its structure for addressing the result. A prototype of the system has been implemented in JASON, a language for programming multi agent systems. Some aggregate statistics of execution are reported and discussed.},
