How to develop interoperable and integrated systems (complex networks of IT services) in which we balance the goals and needs of stakeholders with respect to cost-effectiveness, security and safety
Service-oriented principles, architectures and technology
Model-driven design and engineering
Requirements engineering

3. Research program: why and how
Our IT systems are decentralized, distributed and heterogeneous, and increasingly part of bigger socio-cyber-physical systems
New challenges concerning seamless integration into their environment and interoperability of IT subsystems that process (real-time) data about the environment
Services as technology application and as enabling technology
Services exploit technology capabilities and hide technology specificity for (re)use in various end-user and business contexts
Services enable interoperability of heterogeneous equipment, software programs and business processes
Associated semantic technologies are used to establish and preserve meaning across system boundaries

4. Example projects
COMMIT/SWELL: smart reasoning systems for well-being at work
Modelling end-user goals, their dependency on user situations, and how the latter emerge from context events
Using results from activity recognition algorithms to offer personalized services
Dinalog/SynchromodalIT: dynamic planning of logistic activities
Integration architecture for data, applications, and processes
Using real-time information to detect/predict deviation from planning goals, and proposing alternative plans
CAPES-SDM: early-warning systems for disaster risk reduction
Modelling emergency situations and response actions
Distributed broker system for situation discovery and collaboration between stakeholders
