Autonomic Computing - Principles, Design and Implementation

Buy

Autonomic computing seeks to render computing systems as self-managed. In other words, its objective is to enable computer systems to manage themselves so as to minimise the need for human input. Autonomic computing as an approach is guaranteed to change the way software systems are developed. Indeed, this new fi eld is addressing some of the issues resulting from the ever-increasing complexity of software administration and the growing diffi culty encountered by software administrators in performing their job effectively.

This book provides a practical perspective on autonomic computing. Implementing self-managed systems remains a true challenge today. Thus, beyond giving necessary explanations about the objectives and interests of autonomic computing, this book goes through the different software engineering techniques that are currently available for organising and developing self-managed software systems. In summary, this book uniquely:

• Provides a structured and comprehensive introduction to autonomic computing with a software engineering perspective, as far as we are aware this is the fi rst book to do so

• Presents highly up-to-date information on techniques implementing selfmonitoring, self-knowledge, decision-making and self-adaptation

• Provides a downloadable learning environment and source code that allows students to develop, execute and test autonomic applications at an associated website

Authors have created the aforementioned learning environment and placed it on a web page that will be regularly updated. The environment represents an autonomic pervasive computing application that simulates a digital home . A dedicated development environment has been designed around this; it allows the student to execute autonomic code in a runtime simulation that provides concrete, visual feedback of the behaviours illustrating what the student has programmed.

This book is aimed at students and practitioners working on software projects where system self-management would redress maintenance complexity and cost issues. Several aspects of this book have been tested in a classroom, which makes this book ideal for a 10-week lecture programme.
