MurrayInteroperability – need standards
DanAdapting to design flaws seems impossible
DannyLots of architectures for adaptabilityApply architectural analysis to verify quality properties
MarinDiverse range of papers across autonomic computing,
and software engineeringWide spectrum of high-level and specific papers

MasoudPushing complexity inside systems can become
difficult to maintain (humans still involved in evolving these systems)
Need to separate the concerns of self-management from business logic
ReanHow to benchmark or evaluate these systems on
various quality factors, beyond performance?Need objective criteria

PiotrDiverse range of papers, but disjoint; perhaps
the topics could be more targeted, since autonomic computing is such a wide area
DennisDiversity good, to avoid the growing
community from being too insularSeveral traditions involved hereTRAPJ approach seems to have promise

BradleyAlso interested in TRAP approach
MassimilianoPracticality of the techniques
MarcusNo one presented a development approach
that involved existing, legacy components

No work on formally analyzing an adaptable system to ensure quality requirements
YijunNeed example benchmark problem on which
autonomic aspects can be applied
Diverse range of viewpointsLooking at formalizing goals; executable specification
language for dynamic changing goals for properties

What caught your eye at DEAS 2005?What caught your eye at DEAS 2005?
How to reveal fault or failure in a system?How to specify formally how to adapt or
evolve the system?
AlexeiDidn’t see anything on formalization of
adaptationPractical solutions lower level than he can
directly use

Dynamic measures Jinguo
Agents community also very diverse
Lots of mechanisms, but missed real results or strategies for making a system self managing; does such a system really help?
KenRole of user in autonomic systems

DEAS futureA focus on software applications, more than
the middleware aspectsNeed design techniques and strategies for
building an autonomic application in some domain
Symposium at ICSE 2006 Shanghai• two-day workshop• focusing on software engineering aspects
