Long-lived, architecture-based software systems are increasingly important. Effective process support for these systems depends upon recognising their compositional nature and the ...

We consider temporal aspects of self-replication and evolvability – in particular, the massively asynchronous parallel and distributed nature of living systems. Formal views of s...
Computer programming of complex systems is a time consuming effort. Results are often brittle and inflexible. Evolving, self-learning flexible multi-agent systems remain a distant ...
Evolvable Hardware (EHW) has been proposed as a new technique to design complex systems. Often, complex systems turn out to be very difficult to evolve. The problem is that a gen...
Software that cannot evolve is condemned to atrophy: it cannot accommodate the constant revision and renegotiation of its business goals nor intercept the potential of new technol...
