The Computing of Digital Ecosystems
نویسندگان
چکیده
A primary motivation this research in digital ecosystems is the desire to exploit the self-organising properties of biological ecosystems. Ecosystems are thought to be robust, scalable architectures that can automatically solve complex and dynamic problems. However, the computing technologies that contribute to these properties have not been made explicit in digital ecosystems research. In this paper, the authors discuss how different computing technologies can contribute to providing the necessary self-organising features, including Multi-Agent Systems (MASs), Service-Oriented Architectures (SOAs), and distributed evolutionary computing (DEC). The potential for exploiting these properties in digital ecosystems is considered, suggesting how several key features of biological ecosystems can be exploited in Digital Ecosystems, and discussing how mimicking these features may assist in developing robust, scalable self-organising architectures. An example architecture, the Digital Ecosystem, is considered in detail. The Digital Ecosystem is then measured experimentally through simulations, which consider the self-organised diversity of its evolving agent populations relative to the user request behaviour.

متن کاملFault Tolerant DNA Computing Based on Digital Microfluidic Biochips
Historically, DNA molecules have been known as the building blocks of life, later on in 1994, Leonard Adelman introduced a technique to utilize DNA molecules for a new kind of computation. According to the massive parallelism, huge storage capacity and the ability of using the DNA molecules inside the living tissue, this type of computation is applied in many application areas such as me...
متن کاملXRD Metadata to Make Digital Identity Less Visible and Foster Trusted Collaborations across Networked Computing Ecosystems
Distributed computing ecosystems’ collaboration and mass integration between partners require extensive digital identities processing in order to better respond to services’ consumers. Such processing is increasingly implies loss of user’s control over identity, security risks and threads to privacy. Digital identity is represented by a set of linked and disparate documents distributed over com...
متن کاملA framework for discovering and classifying ubiquitous services in digital health ecosystems
A digital ecosystem is a widespread type of ubiquitous computing environment comprised of ubiquitous, geographically dispersed, and heterogeneous species, technologies and services. As a sub-domain of the digital ecosystems, digital health ecosystems are crucial for the stability and sustainable development of the digital ecosystems. However, since the service information in the digital health ...
