To live up to its promised business impact, the emerging Internet of Things must be accompanied by new ways to decentralize and adapt business logic for smart objects. Smart object lifecycle management refers to the decentralized, event-based, context-sensitive execution and adaptation of processes by smart physical objects during their path through different domains and their interaction with other entities. These entities include the end-user or consumer, other objects, or web-based information services. In this paper, we propose an approach how events and reaction to those events can be virtually attached to certain situations in the lifecycle of physical smart objects. In addition, we present an smart object lifecycle architecture for enabling multiple stakeholders to provide the necessary event and processing information for specific domains.

Business processes spanning across organizational boundaries inside and outside an enterprise are increasingly becoming common practice in today's networked business environments. Service level agreements (SLAs) are negotiated between enterprises to measure, ensure and enforce service fulfillment and quality in this dynamic context. Often, SLA violations are directly associated with penalty costs, making it crucial to stick to agreed SLAs and proactively intervene in case of potential violations. Thus, a framework is required which allows for (1) efficient business process compliance monitoring, and (2) taking immediate action in case of compliance violations in order to minimize the business impact. In this paper we present a novel compliance monitoring framework based on a Complex Event Processing (CEP) engine. It allows modeling business processes as event flows, whereby events reflect state changes in a process or the business environment. Compliance checkpoints are added to an event flow and signify aspects which may be relevant to monitor, such as the relative timeframe between two events. Upon these, monitoring rules are defined to detect compliance violations and automatically trigger corrective actions.

The past few years have seen a dramatic rise in the distribution channels available to media companies. While media companies once distributed their programming through one or two mediums, such as TV broadcasts and video tapes, the same programming is now also distributed through additional mediums such as the Internet and mobile phones. As a result, the IT systems of these companies are now required to handle both new content formats and to ensure that content is simultaneously and successfully prepared in order to meet scheduling and distribution requirements for multiple delivery pathways. This paper describes a solution that was developed to address the problem. The system presented here was implemented by the Taiwan¡¦s Public Television Service (PTS) in an effort to improve the effectiveness of daily operation in January 2010 and is currently providing complete support to the company¡¦s daily operations. Since implementation, this automated process has increase the average number of transcoding jobs completed daily from 500 to 700 ¡V and increase of 40 percent.
