PACT: Personal Autonomic Computing Tools
Roy Sterritt, Bill Smyth, Martin P. Bradley · 2005
Personal computing offers unique challenges for self-management due to its multi-equipment, multi-situation, and multi-user nature. The aim of this research is to improve the autonomicity within personal computing; the evolution towards personal autonomic computing. In this paper proof of concept self-managing tools are presented and lessons learned derived. At this stage of the autonomic evolution the need of new software development processes to provide the self-* properties is becoming very evident.
