The global supporting digital infrastructures, the huge capacity to 
communicate, execute, monitor, and control operations, operators and 
processes, create an expected distributed environment leaded by concrete 
goals but uncertain results instead. Besides the integration and 
interoperability requirements, the capacity to assure the integrity for 
the quality of services, continue representing the most serious criteria 
to fit. This is even more serious when the automation tries to free the 
active involvement of human’s decisions.
Blockchain and its non-required leading central authority have been 
shown its diverse application fields in recent years. It is highly 
expected that blockchain results represent a key enabling for new 
technological and industrial innovation.
The emergent experiential context arising from the Artificial 
Intelligence, Internet of Things, Industry 4.0, and Mixed Reality 
advances and implementations, show and promote the creativity potential 
of new services and challenges. Nevertheless, new archetypes require new 
management and control rules and concerns.
