Abstract:
To be able to build self-managing services, services should not be only autonomic, but also organic. This is because autonomic services can lead to services' failure when new unpredicted situations arise, as they are currently built using predefined sets of rules and policies manually tailored for specific situations and contexts. Hence, autonomic services need to support organic properties, such as self-learning and self-explanation in order to handle such unpredicted situations. Currently, all existing works focus on making services autonomic, but not organic. To overcome such limitation, this paper proposes a novel approach to build organic web services. The proposed approach aims to build digital brains as a service, which will be responsible for all cognition, thinking, learning, planning, and decision making tasks, such that any ordinary service can become organic just by plugging it to the corresponding digital brain service. The proposed approach builds the digital brain service as a composite web service, realizing the components of the adopted Starzyk-Prasad machine consciousness computational model. The proposed approach opens the doors for a new era, where digital brains for software systems can be created, trained, and rented.
