The service paradigm as we know it has gone through a long journey ofevolution and improvement, and it seems that a service-oriented vision toactivities in general could serve as a potential platform for the globaltransition to a sustainable future. However, it is also apparent that theservices themselves are required to move beyond their traditional definition inorder to prevent any secondary side effect. Here, a new paradigm is proposedbased on bonding between entities involved in a service interaction, servicechaining, or service orchestration. It is purposed to serve as a vehicle toapproach sustainability at the global level in a manner that is thoughtful,collaborative, and incremental. Time-modulated implementation of the proposedservice-bond paradigm is considered in order to reduce the associated risks andliabilities. The service bonds are then simply generalized toward representingbonding among more than two entities. Finally, a practical application of ICTagents in enabling the service bonds is presented in a use case related tosmart houses. In this use case, some ICT-based agents (federal regulars, amongother ICT agents) are considered to represent and govern services and servicebonds of a household with external entities such as utilities.
