Our society continues to depend upon systems that are built in a
way that they end up being inflexible and intolerant to change.
Therefore there is an urgent need to investigate innovations and
approaches to the management of adaptive and dependable systems.
These studies are usually implemented through design, development,
and the evaluation of techniques and models to structure computer
systems as adaptive systems. Innovations and Approaches for
Resilient and Adaptive Systems is a comprehensive collection of
knowledge on increasing the notions and models in adaptive and
dependable systems. This book aims to enhance the awareness of the
role of adaptability and resilience in system environments for
researchers, practitioners, educators, and professionals alike.
As systems become more prevalent and more complex, resilient
adaptive systems are crucial when systems are needed in
environments where change is the rule rather than the exception.
Technological Innovations in Adaptive and Dependable Systems:
Advancing Models and Concepts provides high quality, effective
approaches to design, develop, maintain, evaluate, and benchmark
adaptive and dependable systems that are built to sustain quality
of service and experience despite the occurrence of potentially
significant and sudden changes or failures in their infrastructure
and surrounding environments. Providing academicians,
practitioners, and researchers with insight, this book contains
useful software and hardware aspects, conceptual models, applied
and theoretical approaches, paradigms, and other technological
innovations.
In this technological era, failure to address application-layer
fault-tolerance, a key ingredient to crafting truly dependable
computer services, leaves the door open to unfortunate consequences
in quality of service.""Application-Layer Fault-Tolerance
Protocols"" increases awareness of the need for application-layer
fault-tolerance (ALFT) through introduction of problems and
qualitative analysis of solutions. A necessary read for
researchers, practitioners, and students in dependability
engineering, this book collects emerging research to offer a
systematic, critical organization of the current knowledge in ALFT.
Communication and Control: Tools, Systems, and New Dimensions
advocates a systems view of human communication in a time of
intelligent, learning machines. This edited collection sheds new
light on things as mundane yet still profoundly consequential (and
seemingly "low-tech") as push buttons, pagers, and telemarketing
systems. Contributors also investigate aspects of "remote control"
related to education, organizational design, artificial
intelligence, cyberwarfare, drones, and even binge-watching on
Netflix. In line with a systems view, the collection takes up a
media ecological view. This work will be of interest to students,
scholars, and researchers in communication, new media, and
technology.
