10.0 Conclusion

In this paper, we introduced the autonomic computing paradigm, which is inspired by biological systems such as the autonomic human nervous system, and enables the development of self-managing computing systems and applications. The systems use autonomic strategies and algorithms to handle complexity and uncertainties with minimum human intervention.

Several research efforts focused on enabling the autonomic properties address four main areas: self-healing, self-protection, self-configuration, and self-optimization. Projects in both industry and academia, have addressed autonomic behaviors at all levels, from the hardware level to software systems and applications. At the hardware level, systems may be dynamically upgradable, while at the operating system level, active operating system code may be replaced dynamically. Efforts have also focused on autonomic middle-ware, programming systems and run-time. At the application level, self optimizing databases and web servers dynamically reconfigure to adapt service performance.

However, achieving overall autonomic behaviors remains an open and significant challenge, which will be accomplished through a combination of process changes, skills evolution, new technologies and architecture, and open industry standards.
