Abstract
A method for establishing a full end-to-end functionality chain of collaborating network accessible capabilities within a network centric environment is described. The method includes identifying the network accessible capabilities that are necessary to implement the end-to-end functionality chain, receiving data relating to which capabilities are available at each network node, determining if all necessary capabilities are available based on received responses to the data request, selecting one or more network accessible capability instances for each necessary network accessible capability, and executing the selected capability instances in an order that implements the end-to-end functionality chain.
