Adaptive, Dynamic, and Resilient Systems

Examining cutting-edge adaptive systems research, this book addresses the challenges of understanding, predicting, and controlling systems of networked computers, particularly important when considering the intersection of critical infrastructure, complex systems, and resilience. The authors unveil novel approaches to building adaptive, dynamic, and resilient systems—including agile, grid, and autonomic computing; multi-agent-based and biologically inspired approaches; and self-organizing systems.
