The complexity of large computer systems has raised unprecedented challenges for system management. In practice, operators often collect large volume of monitoring data from system...
Pervasive computing devices (e.g., sensor networks, localization devices, cameras, etc.) are increasingly present in every aspect of our lives. These devices are able to generate ...

—The ever increasing scale and complexity of large computational systems ask for sophisticated management tools, paving the way toward Autonomic Computing. A first step toward A...
This paper uses robot experience to explore key concepts of autonomy, life and being. Unfortunately, there are no widely accepted definitions of autonomy, life or being. Using a ne...
