Service Composition Modeling Using Interpreted Petri Net for System Integration

Markets are becoming independent of geographic barriers and industries are seeking new manufacturing systems configurations, from centralized structures to distributed structures, moving their productive plants to countries with energy reserves and low operating costs. To allow the coordination and management of this new distributed structure, it takes advantage of the advances in mechatronics and information technologies (IT), which allow a greater cooperation between the system parties and between the involved users (clients, operators, managers, etc.). Each part of this part of disperse productive system (DPS), which is also a productive system, has a high level of operational autonomy. Thus, this kind of system presents new integration and coordination problems which must be overcome to achieve effective implementation. The recent DPS technologies use mechatronics and IT advances and explores the internet resources for components interactions, transforming them into services. The service composition is one of the components coordination challenges in DPSs. The service composition must not centralize the information exchange, as it must reduce dependence on a specific service. This work proposes a collaborative control of disperse system based service composition technique.
