A survey on autonomic computing research

Abstract

Autonomic computing is a new technology to solve crisis of software complexity which means to hide the complexity of system management from human users by means of technologies managing technologies, to establish guidable, state-aware, and self-adaptive computer systems. According to the analysis of domestic and foreign representative literature, this paper makes an overview on concept of autonomic computing and presents autonomic computing properties and sampling applications. Then the important theories and technologies for autonomic computing system models are given. Finally, the research problems and future directions of autonomic computing are discussed.
