Today's digital world and evolving technology has improved the quality of our lives but it has
also come with a number of new threats. In the society of smart-cities and Industry 4.0, where …

Designing software systems that have to deal with dynamic operating conditions, such as
changing availability of resources and faults that are difficult to predict, is complex. A …

Dynamically adaptive systems (DASs) are intended to monitor the execution environment
and then dynamically adapt their behavior in response to changing environmental …

A cloud is a distributed Internet-based software system providing resources as tiered
services. Through service-orientation and virtualization for resource provisioning, cloud …

Architecting software systems according to the service-oriented paradigm and designing
runtime self-adaptable systems are two relevant research areas in today's software …

Runtime adaptation is recognized as a viable way for a service-oriented system to meet QoS
requirements in its volatile operating environment. In this paper we propose a methodology …

Approaches that support the decision-making of self-adaptive and autonomous systems
(SAS) often consider an idealized situation where (i) the system's state is treated as fully …

A self-adaptive software system is one that can autonomously modify its behavior at runtime
in response to changes in the system and its environment. It is a challenge to model such a …
