| Summary |
A concise and practical introduction'to the foundations and engineering principles of'self-adaptation' Though it has recently gained significant momentum, the topic of self-adaptation remains largely under-addressed in academic and technical literature. This book changes that.'Using'a systematic and holistic approach,'An Introduction to Self-adaptive Systems: A Contemporary Software Engineering Perspective'provides readers with'an accessible'set of'basic'principles,'engineering'foundations, and applications'of self-adaptation in software-intensive systems.' It places self-adaptation in the context of techniques like uncertainty management, feedback control, online reasoning, and machine learning while acknowledging the growing'consensus'in the software engineering community that self-adaptation will be'a'crucial'enabling feature'in tackling'the challenges'of new, emerging, and future systems.'' The author combines cutting-edge technical research'with basic principles and real-world insights to create a practical and strategically'effective'guide to self-adaptation.'He'includes'features'such as:'' An analysis of the'foundational'engineering'principles and'applications'of self-adaptation'in'different'domains,'including'the Internet-of-Things, cloud computing, and cyber-physical systems'> End-of-chapter exercises at four different levels of complexity and difficulty'> An accompanying author-hosted website with'slides, selected exercises'and solutions,'models,'and'code'> > Perfect for'researchers,'students, teachers, industry leaders,'and practitioners in'fields that directly or peripherally involve'software engineering,'as well as those in academia involved in a class on self-adaptivity, this book belongs on the shelves of anyone with'an'interest in the future of software'and its'engineering.'</ |
