CASCOM Demonstrated Innovative Research, Results and Techniques

CASCOM ProjectThe essential approach of CASCOM is the innovative inter-disciplinary combination of intelligent agent, Semantic Web, P2P, and mobile computing technology. Conventional peer-to-peer computing environments are extended with components for mobile and wireless communication. Semantic Web services are provided by peer software agents which exploit the CASCOM coordination infrastructure to efficiently operate in highly dynamic environments. The generic CASCOM coordination support infrastructure includes efficient communication means, support for context-aware adaptation techniques, as well as flexible, resource-efficient service discovery, execution, and composition planning.

The project presented a full proof-of-concept implementation of the generic CASCOM service coordination support infrastructure for mobile business application service coordination for mobile users and workers, and a field-trial CASCOM demonstrator for selected pervasive health care application services.

For end users, the CASCOM framework provides more easy and seamless access to semantic Web services anytime, anywhere, by using any mobile computing device. For service providers, CASCOM offers an innovative development platform for intelligent and mobile business application services in the Semantic Web.

CASCOM is a Specific Targeted Research or Innovation Project (no. FP6 - 511632) supported by the European Union's IST programme. It started in September 2004 and has a duration of 36 months.
