abstract = {A smart travel system is a complex distributed system acting as a tour operator for organizing holiday packages and supporting travelers on-the-run. A couple of key characteristics of such a system are the ability of self-configuring a set of heterogeneous services and self-adapting to unexpected circumstances. This paper reports an experience of developing a smart travel system by adopting MUSA, a Middleware for User-driven Service Adaptation. The prototype supports users in organizing their time by the specification of goals: this triggers the automatic composition and dynamic orchestration of touristic services. The chosen middleware has played a fundamental role by simplifying the development process thus to speed up the time-to-complete.},

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.},
