Self-adaptive systems are able to autonomously adapt to changing user requirements and resource variability at runtime, therefore addressing the problem of software complexity and...
: In this paper, we discuss our challenge on how to give the creatures and ability to follow spatial restriction while keeping the complexity low enough to still allow for real-tim...
Abstract--In the network-centric computing era, applications often involve sets of autonomous, unpredictable, and possibly mobile entities interacting within open, dynamic, and pos...
