CSE, POSTECH Growing Complexity… Very large scales – million of entities Ad hoc (amorphous) structures/behaviors – p2p/hierarchical architecture Dynamic – entities join, leave, move, change behavior Heterogeneous – capability, connectivity, reliability, guarantees, QoS Unreliable – components, communication Lack of common/complete knowledge – number, type, location, availability, connectivity, protocols, semantics, etc. Autonomic Computing -4- DP&NM Lab. CSE, POSTECH Convergence of IT and BT Our system programming paradigms, methods and management tools seem to be inadequate for handling the scale, complexity, dynamism and heterogeneity of emerging future network and systems Biological systems have evolved strategies to cope with dynamic, complex, highly uncertain constraints Recently, some research area of IT is applying biological system concept to solve its unsolved problems Autonomic Computing -5- DP&NM Lab. CSE, POSTECH Autonomic Computing Autonomic – Pertaining to an on demand operating environment that responds automatically to problems, security threats, and system failures – Cf) self-adaptive, self-governing, self-managing, … The term “autonomic” is derived from human biology – autonomic nervous system – ANS monitors heartbeat, body temperature, … • Without any conscious effort on one’s part! Nature has evolved to cope with scale, complexity, heterogeneity, dynamism and unpredictability, lack of guarantees – self configuring, self optimizing, self healing, self protecting, highly decentralized, heterogeneous architectures that work !!! The goal of autonomic computing is to use appropriate solutions based on current state/context/content based on specified policies Autonomic Computing -6- DP&NM Lab.
