Abstract

Enterprises are complex systems comprising three fundamental components: a physical sub-system, a decision sub-system, and an information sub-system. Humans in the enterprises are not just resources but the first consumers and providers of data, information, and knowledge. The present research considers enterprise as a technical system embedding social component. Socio-cyber-physical systems naturally embody this idea. The research considers such systems as an enterprise component that combines the cyber aspects of computing and communications with the dynamics and physics of physical enterprise. The enterprise interoperability problem is treated as the problem of service interoperability in socio-cyber-physical systems at the service level and process level of an enterprise. The research proposes ontologies of enterprise and socio-cyber-physical system, a task-oriented service interoperability model, and a service communication mechanism.
