Modeling Dimensions of Self-Adaptive Software Systems

چکیده
It is commonly agreed that a self-adaptive software system is one that can modify itself at run-time due to changes in the system, its requirements, or the environment in which it is deployed. A cursory review of the software engineering literature attests to the wide spectrum of software systems that are described as self-adaptive. The way self-adaptation is conceived depends on various aspects, such as the users’ requirements, the particular properties of a system, and the characteristics of the environment. In this paper, we propose a classification of modeling dimensions for self-adaptive software systems. Each modeling dimension describes a particular facet of the system that is relevant to self-adaptation. The modeling dimensions provide the engineers with a common set of vocabulary for specifying the self-adaptive properties under consideration and select suitable solutions. We illustrate how the modeling dimensions apply to several application scenarios.

ABSTRACT The engineering of software systems enables developers to create very powerful, complex and highly customized software systems by utilizing newest technical capabilities. However, these systems often are error-prone, inflexible, non-reusable and expensive to maintain. Self-adaptation attends to these challenges, offering new ways to automate the adjustment of a system’s structure and s...
متن کاملSoftware Engineering Processes for Self-Adaptive Systems
In this paper, we discuss how for self-adaptive systems some activities that traditionally occur at development-time are moved to runtime. Responsibilities for these activities shift from software engineers to the system itself, causing the traditional boundary between developmenttime and run-time to blur. As a consequence, we argue how the traditional software engineering process needs to be r...
متن کاملA Design Space for Self-Adaptive Systems
Self-adaptive systems research is expanding as systems professionals recognize the importance of automation for managing the growing complexity, scale, and scope of software systems. The current approach to designing such systems is ad hoc, varied, and fractured, often resulting in systems with parts of multiple, sometimes poorly compatible designs. In addition to the challenges inherent to all...
