There is an increasing interest in self-organization of software, due to properties like robustness and adaptibility of self-organizing biological systems. These are properties that we would like to imbue in our software, but have no reliable mechanism to do it with. Among software systems, there are broadly two kinds of change that we would like:

1) functional – the software changes functionality on its own

2) quality attributes – the software changes the quality of the functionality provided, on its own

This talk will focus on self-organization needed to effect quality attribute changes, and our approach for self-organization. We investigate the use of market-based controls (demand, supply, price etc.) to effect self-organization.

This talk is part of the Postgraduate Seminars in the School of Computer Science series.
