Abstract

In this paper, we describe a multiagent-based adaptive ad-hoc pervasive service architecture. It provides dynamic context-aware service and operation management including semantic service match-making, composition, execution, monitoring, and autonomic recovery. The intended application is decision support in tactical field operations. This domain requires dynamic adaptive composition of services, resources, and assets via ubiquitous and pervasive computing devices connected by mobile wireless peer-to-peer networks. Our goal is to provide on-demand pervasive services to meet users' dynamic situational information needs. Our solution uses distributed peer service composition agents to adaptively weave within and across three abstract service layers, i.e., the agent-based peer service composition agent layer, the agent-based wrapper service layer, and the resource and asset layer.
