Background
The Adaptive Business Solutions Work Group exists to bring together providers and potential consumers of advanced software solutions, help customers evaluate these solutions, and facilitate dialog among technical and business stakeholders.
In particular, it works towards integrating agent technology into conventional enterprise technology. Logistics (supply chain, resource scheduling) and FSI (anti-money laundering) are among the most likely domains that will become the focal points for this.
The conference plenary includes a session on "Adaptive and Collaborative SOA: Some case studies", which will present ideas that will provide the context for the Adaptive Business Solutions meeting.
Objectives
Given that context, the purposes of the meeting are to:
- Investigate the solution space;
- Develop possible ABS solutions as part of the meeting; and
- Identify the next steps to be taken by the Work Group.
