“…We have to implement methodologies that break users' goals down into the selection of the appropriate Smart Watches or more generally their offered services. This process offers great flexibility during runtime but consumes processing time during the setup of the system due to the necessity of goal translation, selection of needed Smart Watches, establishing of connections and finally setting up needed reasoning techniques to fuse [7,8] the data.…”

We didn't start the fire, it was always burning since technology became integrated into wearable things that can be traced back to the early 1500s. This earliest forms of wearable technology were manifested as pocket watches. Of course technology changed and evolved, but again it might be the watch, now in form of a wrist worn smart watch, that could carve the way towards an always on, large scale, planet spanning, body sensor network. The challenge arises on how to handle this enormous scale of upcoming smart watches and the produced data. This work highlights a strategy on how to make use of the massive amount of smart watches in building goal oriented, dynamically evolving network structures that autonomously adapt to changes in the smart watch ecosystem like cells do in the human organism.

Modern ICT (Information and Communication Technology) has developed a vision where the "computer" is no longer associated with the concept of a single device or a network of devices, but rather the entirety of situated services originating in a digital world, which are perceived through the physical world. It is observed that services with explicit user input and output are becoming to be replaced by a computing landscape sensing the physical world via a huge variety of sensors, and controlling it via a plethora of actuators. The nature and appearance of computing devices is changing to be hidden in the fabric of everyday life, invisibly networked, and omnipresent, with applications greatly being based on the notions of context and knowledge. Interaction with such globe spanning, modern ICT systems will presumably be more implicit, at the periphery of human attention, rather than explicit, i.e. at the focus of human attention.Socio-inspired ICT assumes that future, globe scale ICT systems should be viewed as social systems. Such a view challenges research to identify and formalize the principles of interaction and adaptation in social systems, so as to be able to ground future ICT systems on those principles. This position paper therefore is concerned with the intersection of social behaviour and modern ICT, creating or recreating social conventions and social contexts through the use of pervasive, globe-spanning, omnipresent and participative ICT.

Abstract. Modern ICT (Information and Communication Technology) has developed a vision where the "computer" is no longer associated with the concept of a single device or a network of devices, but rather the entirety of situated services originating in a digital world, which are perceived through the physical world. It is observed that services with explicit user input and output are becoming to be replaced by a computing landscape sensing the physical world via a huge variety of sensors, and controlling it via a plethora of actuators. The nature and appearance of computing devices is changing to be hidden in the fabric of everyday life, invisibly networked, and omnipresent, with applications greatly being based on the notions of context and knowledge. Interaction with such globe spanning, modern ICT systems will presumably be more implicit, at the periphery of human attention, rather than explicit, i.e. at the focus of human attention. Socio-inspired ICT assumes that future, globe scale ICT systems should be viewed as social systems. Such a view challenges research to identify and formalize the principles of interaction and adaptation in social systems, so as to be able to ground future ICT systems on those principles. This position paper therefore is concerned with the intersection of social behaviour and modern ICT, creating or recreating social conventions and social contexts through the use of pervasive, globe-spanning, omnipresent and participative ICT.
