Services are the dominant type of economic activity in industrialized economies. The term Internet of Services relates to the representation and (partial) execution of services - in the economic sense - in the Internet. Many issues around the mapping between economic services and services in the IT sense are still unresolved. On the other hand, only a small fraction of services are entirely dematerialized; the vast majority of services ultimately relate to things in the real world: to the Internet of Things. The Ubiquitous Computing community has already made considerable advances in closing the information gap between services and things. One well-known example is the use of RFID tags in logistics. Yet this is only the beginning, there still exists a largely untapped source of innovation at the junction of services and things.

This workshop is about bringing together industry and academia to explore how scientific advances in ubiquitous computing techniques can help improve existing economic services and create opportunities for new services. We are also interested in how services can add value to smart things. This is a forum for industry to learn about recent advances in Ubicomp and also for researchers to learn about the problems faced by industry that may spark new research questions and the next wave of Ubicomp applications.We solicit a) technical papers with a proven original scientific contribution and b) systematic, well-founded experience reports and requirements / demands analyses. Core IT papers and papers at the boundary of technology and business or humanities are invited.
