Building adaptive self-healing systems within a resource contested environment

Building adaptive self-healing systems within a resource contested environment

Critical Software systems must recover when they experience degradation, either through external actors or internal system failures. There is currently no accepted generic methodology used by the software engineering community to design self-healing systems. Such systems identify when they require healing resources, and then change their own behavior to acquire and utilize these same resources....

Self-Healing and Self-Adaptive Systems Dagstuhl Seminar

From May 10th 2009 to May 15th 2009 the Dagstuhl Seminar 09201 Self-Healing and Self-Adaptive Systems was held in Schloss Dagstuhl Leibniz Center for Informatics. During the seminar, several participants presented their current research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of the presentations given during the seminar are put together in this paper. Links to extended ab...

An Adaptive Approach to Self-Healing in an Intelligent Environment

In this paper we address the management of sensor faults in an intelligent environment. Our proposed approach aims to introduce self-healing as a method of fault management. This approach is based on the use of adaptive finite state machine automata which handle suspicious sensor behavior. These state machines communicate with a mobile robot which investigates the error states detected through ...

Building Resource Adaptive Software Systems (BRASS): Objectives and System Evaluation

As modern software systems continue inexorably to increase in complexity and capability, users have become accustomed to periodic cycles of updating and upgrading to avoid obsolescence—if at some cost in terms of frustration. In the case of the U.S. military, having access to well-functioning software systems and underlying content is critical to national security, but updates are no less probl...
