Design and evolution of highly adaptive software systems: Context, control and run-time validation

随着Web服务和社会技术生态系统的快速发展，这些现代化、去中心化、分布式计算系统的复杂性给企业带来了重大挑战。从以商品为中心到以服务为中心的业务的持续发展需要新的创新方法来构建、运行、管理和发展软件系统。最终用户越来越多地要求企业提供灵活、弹性、基于位置、面向服务、分散、节能、自我修复和自我优化的智能软件系统。具有这种高度自适应特性的系统必须能够在运行时以完全或半自动自适应的形式调整其行为，以响应其对环境和自身状态的感知。

With the rapid growth of web services and socio-technical ecosystems, the complexity of these modern, decentralized, distributed computing systems presents significant challenges for businesses. The continuous evolution from goods-centric to service-centric businesses requires new and innovative approaches for building, running, managing, and evolving software systems. End-users increasingly demand that businesses provide smart software systems that are flexible, resilient, location-based, service-oriented, decentralized, energy-efficient, self-healing, and self-optimizing. A system with such highly adaptive properties must be capable of adjusting its behaviour at run-time in response to its perception of its environment and its own state in the form of fully or semi-automatic self-adaptation.
