Autonomic Computing - a means of achieving dependability?
Roy Sterritt, David Bustard · 2004
Autonomic computing is emerging as a significant new approach to the design of computing systems. Its goal is the development of systems that are self-configuring, self-healing, self-protecting and self-optimizing. Dependability is a long-standing desirable property of all computer-based systems. The purpose of the paper is to consider how autonomic computing can provide a framework for dependability.
