Abstract: With the sweeping progress of services technology and crowdsourcing, individuals are offering their capability as a service and companies are orchestrating them for problem solving over the web. Recent years have witnessed a rapid development of a human service ecosystem. Such ecosystem is complicated since humans grow capability overtime and their collaborations typically imply human involvement. It is thus worthy to understand the evolution of human capabilities and collaborations for optimization and effective management. This talk presents a three-layer time-aware heterogeneous network model, and based on it, a novel method is developed to study how human service providers and consumers develop their service provision and orchestrating capabilities as well as how they collaborate with each other. Exploratory analysis uncovers some evolution patterns which open a gateway for further adaptation to facilitate the human services adaptation from a service computing perspective, such as human service recommendation and skill expansion.
