  2. Self-Awareness in Autonomic Systemsrationale and objectives General objective • Awareness relating to higher and even global levels. • Reconsider fixing abstraction layers at design time Create autonomic computing and communication systems able to optimise overall performance and resource usage in response to changing conditions, adapting to both context (such as user behaviour) and internal changes (such as topology).

  3. Self-Awareness in Autonomic Systemsresearch topics New concepts, architectures, foundations and technologies for: • Creating awareness at the level of autonomic nodes, • by allowing them to interactively and selectively collect information about the system, • and use it effectively. • Dynamic self-expression, namely the ability to autonomically use awareness to adapt the trade-off between abstraction and optimisation. Requirements • Investigate usability in larger context • Demonstrator

  4. Self-Awareness in Autonomic Systemsbackground • Managing Systems is getting harder • Integration/connection of different • devices and heterogeneous platforms • into one system • Combination of different programming models • Unexpected behaviour of collections of nodes - not forseen during design process • Increased technological complexity

  5. Self-Awareness in Autonomic Systemsbackground • Awareness of Context • Context internal to system • Changes in topology • Resource needs and availability • Context external to system • User behaviour • System performance • Disruptions and malfunctions

  6. Self-Awareness in Autonomic Systemsbackground • Autonomy, awareness, distributed-ness and learning • Awareness as a form of learning • Learning as a means to reduce human intervention • Autonomy: selecting the right information to obtain from the system or pass on to others • Considering the cost of information flow • Exposing or hiding low level details • Adjusting the abstraction level as the • requirements change

  7. Self-Awareness in Autonomic Systemsinspirations and challenges • Inspirations • Biology (societies; reproduction; evolution) • Autonomic systems (autonomicity; self-*; dynamicity; situatedness) • Global Computing (heterogeneity; mobility and concurrency; resource virtualisation) • Social science; Semantics; Ontology • Challenges • Global versus local awareness • Separation versus integration of concerns • Prediction and evolution

  8. HAGGLE BIONETS Opportunistic networking (cross-layer) Autonomic service evolution ANA CASCADAS Beyond IP self-org. Autonomic communication elements Earlier call « Situated and Autonomic Communication » Common research issues: Security, resilience, self-* (organisation, evolution,healing, …) interaction of new paradigms with society New Architectures Situated Services

  9. Earlier call « Global Computing » Mobius MOBIUS will investigate trust and security for small devices which are functioning as a part of global computers. The main focus is on proof carrying code aimed at checking previously created proofs with modest computational resources. Sensoria Sensoria will develop a novel methodology for engineering service-oriented overlay computers and for building a framework for context-adaptive, personalisable global services. Aeolus Aeolus aims at developing algorithmic principles and implementing the basic functionalities (i.e., programming tools, trust management, secure distributed computation) to enable transparent and efficient access to an internet-based global computer.
