Abstract

In light of the rapid development of network technology, the general concept of software requires redefinition. New opportunities provided by broadband networking, distributed processing, and available network resources i.e. what is widely called a cloud, makes the classic software architecture obsolete. In this paper it is proposed to apply the web service oriented approach and cloud-related techniques to the tasks of the control algorithms design, engineering and training. Basing on the literature, the necessary concepts are defined and the limitations specific to the considered domain are identified. Next, with the two specific applications as the examples, it is described how to apply the new approach to the classic tasks, in order to turn the classic software into the cloud-based software.
