Sun has developed a new architecture for building and deploying systems and services capable of Predictive SelfHealing. Self-healing technology enables Sun systems and services to maximize availability in the face of software and hardware faults. It facilitates a simpler and more effective end-to-end experience for system administrators, reducing cost of ownership. The first self-healing featur...

A cyanate ester/microcapsule system with low cure temperature and self-healing " Abstract: Microcapsules filled with epoxy resin were blended into cyanate ester resin to produce systems with low cure temperature and self-healing capacity. A 4,4′-diaminodiphenylsulfone (DDS) curing agent was adopted for the systems. The mechanical properties, thermal stability and self-healing ability of the sys...

The development of polymers that can spontaneously repair themselves after mechanical damage would significantly improve the safety, lifetime, energy efficiency and environmental impact of man-made materials. Most approaches to self-healing materials require the input of external energy, healing agents, solvent or plasticizer. Despite intense research in this area, the synthesis of a stiff mate...

Self-healing systems tackle the issue of ever increasing complexity of software and its management. Selfhealing systems provide solutions for the software systems to manage themselves and recover from errors. There are multiple approaches to self-healing systems ranging from agent based solutions to frameworks. The self-healing process is usually enclosed into a separate layer or components in ...

Designing self-healing into cementitious materials can open a new world of opportunities for resilient concrete infrastructure under service loading conditions. The self-healing process should be robust as well as repeatable, allowing for self-repair after multiple damage events. The repeatability poses great challenges when self-healing strategies mainly rely on the formation of low-strength c...

Self-healing resin systems have been discussed for over a decade and four different technologies had been proposed. However, little work on their application as composite matrices has been published although this was one of the stated aims of the earliest work in the field. This paper reports on the optimization of a solid-state self-healing resin system and its subsequent use as a matrix for h...

This thesis describes the science and technology of a new class of autonomic polymeric materials which mimic some of the functionalities of biological materials. Specifically, we demonstrate an autonomic self-healing polymer system which can heal damage in both coatings and bulk materials. The new self-healing system we developed greatly extends the capability of self-healing polymers by introd...

This paper describes an approach to designing self-healing component for robust, concurrent and distributed software architecture. A self-healing component is able to detect object anomalies inside of the component, reconfigure inter-component and intra-components before and after repairing the sick object, repair it, and then test the healed object. For this, each self-healing component is str...

There is a growing interest in the area of self-healing systems. Self-healing does however impose considerable demands on system infrastructures—especially in terms of openness and support for reconfigurability. This paper proposes that the selfawareness inherent in reflective technologies lends itself well to the construction of self-healing systems. In particular, the paper examines the suppo...

This paper presents work toward the studying of a new family of self-healing cementitious material. This innovative system features the design of microcapsules with calcium sulfoaluminate cement (CSA) as healing agent. The aim of this study is to comprehensively monitor the whole crack-healing process of microcapsules based self-healing system by means of X-ray computed tomography (X-ray CT). I...
