—This paper describes a biologically-inspired network architecture, called SymbioticSphere, which allows large-scale data centers to autonomously adapt to dynamic environmental c...
The ‘engineering’ and ‘adaptive’ approaches to system production are distinguished. It is argued that producing reliable self-organised software systems (SOSS) will necessa...
Transportable agents are autonomous programs. They can move through a heterogeneous network of computers under their own control, migrating from host to host. They can sense the s...
The time-triggered message-triggered object (TMO) programming scheme has been established to remove the limitation of conventional object programming techniques and tools in devel...
Abstract. We present a technique for designing reconfiguration controllers in the Fractal component-based framework. We obtain discrete control loops that automatically enforce saf...
