Services Computing has become a cross-discipline that covers the science and technology of bridging the gap
between Business Services and IT Services. The underlying breaking technology suite includes Web services
and service-oriented architecture (SOA), cloud computing, business consulting methodology and utilities,
business process modeling, transformation and integration. This scope of Services Computing
covers the whole lifecycle of services innovation research that includes business componentization,
services modeling, services creation, services realization, services annotation, services deployment,
services discovery, services composition, services delivery, service-to-service collaboration,
services monitoring, services optimization, as well as services management. The goal of Services Computing
is to enable IT services and computing technology to perform business services more efficiently and effectively.
