Emergent Algorithms Ñ A New Method for Enhancing Survivability in Unbounded Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Traditional security approaches are not sufficient to deal with the protection and survivability of highly distributed information systems operating in unbounded networks. This paper discusses the need for and importance of survivability, defines unbounded network, and examines the characteristics that differentiate survivability from other software quality attributes and nonfunctional properties of systems. It introduces emergent algorithms as an approach to problem solving in unbounded networks and suggests a methodology for their development. Emergent algorithms are philosophically and methodologically different from traditional approaches. The characteristics of emergent algorithms are examined. A strategy for the development of high performance solutions using emergent algorithms is illustrated in outline form for a problem in Internet routing.

Survivability and Simulation
The past few years have shown a need for fundamentally new approaches to the security and survivability of large scale networked systems. Infrastructures and other modern systems pose problems that arise from many factors: partial information, complexity of combined interactions of very large numbers of human and automated participants, ubiquitous access, loss of centralized administrative cont...
متن کاملSurvivable Network Systems: fin Emerging Discipline
Society is growing increasingly dependent upon large-scale, highly distributed systems that operate in unbounded network environments. Unbounded networks, such as the Internet, have no central administrative control and no unified security policy. Furthermore, the number and nature of the nodes connected to such networks cannot be fully known. Despite the best efforts of security practitioners,...
