As the lifetime of many products (that is, goods or services) gets shorter, enterprises have to evolve their information system to account for changes in the internal and external business environment. Indeed, enterprises are using more and more software applications, such as APS, ERP, MES, and SCM, to deal with the increasing complexity of information flows. In this context, a product embedding information about itself and being able to communicate with its environment may be qualified as an “active product.” This new system may then be assimilated to a system-of-systems by gathering all enterprise systems, considered themselves as autonomous systems, together with the active product.
