Service-oriented computing is considered today as a key technology for the development of robust and high quality intelligent distributed and embedded applications. Extensive research and development in the past few years has pushed SOA technology into state-of-the-art application areas such as context-aware, cloud-connected, mobile enterprise systems. However, many of the critical components on building reliable, robust, and usercentric sensor-based SOA systems are still open for research. Hence, it is timely to reexamine SOA research opportunities and identify new research challenges for next generation SOA. 
 We invite submissions of high quality papers describing fully developed results or ongoing work on the topics such as:

   
 Service-oriented architecture, engineering, and applications
   
 M2M service system management
   
 Intelligent service composition, management and maintenance
   
 Configurable and reconfigurable service middleware
   
 Large-scale real-time cyber-physical systems
   
 Dependable and trustworthy services
   
 Streaming and real-time data analytics
   
 Mobile service engineering and applications
    
Security and privacy for intelligent service applications
   
 Context-aware connected embedded computing
    
Service composition with multi-dimensional QoS
   
 Service networks for smart home, smart transportation, and smart infrastructure
