Abstract: A method of providing a service (230) to a requesting Infrastructure Element (105, 110, 115; 245ie) belonging to plurality of Infrastructure Elements (105, 110, 115; 245ie) interconnected to form a data network (100) is proposed. The method comprises operating a computing system (120) for receiving a service request (220r) requesting the provisioning of a service (230) from the requesting Infrastructure Element (105, 110, 15; 245ie), the service request comprising an indication of one or more performance requirements; converting said service request (220r) in a service graph (230g), the service graph (230g) comprising at least one task (530) to be accomplished complying with said one or more performance requirements in order to provide said service (230); selecting at least one Infrastructure Element (105, 110, 115; 245ie) currently capable the accomplishment of said at least one task (530) complying with said one or more performance requirements; configuring the selected at least one Infrastructure Element (105, 110, 115; 245ie) for accomplishing said at least task (530), and causing the selected at least one Infrastructure Element (105, 110, 15; 245ie) to accomplish said at least one task (530) to provide the service (230) to the requesting Infrastructure Element (105, 110, 115; 245ie).

Abstract: It is disclosed a method and system for providing a service to a user. The system comprises a module (VAHI) associated with the user and configured to act on her/his behalf and a plurality of modules (VAE) associated with and representing respective physical resources. The system comprises a runtime distributed execution environment for running VAHI and VAEs, such environment being provided with a distributed operating system supporting access by VAHI and VAEs to the physical resources. The VAHI is capable of having an interaction with the VAEs and, as a result of such interaction, providing the user with a proposal for the provision of a service. Upon reception of an approval from the user, the VAHI is capable of instructing at least one of the VAEs to request the associated physical resource to perform an action providing at least part of the service according to the proposal.
