Software systems dealing with distributed applications in changing environments normally
require human supervision to continue operation in all conditions. These (re-) configuring …

The implementation of context-aware systems can be supported through the adoption of
techniques at the architectural level such as middlewares or component-oriented …

Realizing self-managing systems poses several development and operational challenges.
Reusable software frameworks assist in addressing these challenges by utilizing …

In this article, we present a generic model-centric approach for realizing fine-grained
dynamic adaptation in software systems by managing and interpreting graph-based models …

The need for adaptability in software is growing, driven in part by the emergence of
pervasive and autonomic computing. In many cases, it is desirable to enhance existing …

Recomposable software enables a system to change its structure and behavior during
execution, in response to a dynamic execution environment. This paper proposes an …

Self-adaptive software has become increasingly important to address the new challenges of
complex computing systems. To achieve adaptation, software must be designed and …

Increasingly, software systems are constructed by composing multiple existing applications.
The resulting complexity increases the need for self-management of the system. However …

One approach for achieving runtime adaptability in software is to use application frameworks
that are tailored for the development of self-adaptive systems. In this paper, we present the …
