MISSION OF IJARAS:
Prospective authors are invited to submit manuscripts for possible
publication in the International Journal of Adaptive, Resilient, and
Autonomic Systems. The primary objective of IJARAS is to provide
worldwide readership to high quality, novel, effective approaches to
design, develop, maintain, evaluate, and benchmark
adaptive-and-dependable systems, i.e. devices and services that are
built to sustain quality of service and quality of experience despite
the occurrence of potentially significant and sudden changes or failures
in their infrastructure and surrounding environments. IJARAS has
multiple focuses, ranging from conceptual models and paradigms to
technological aspects.
IJARAS builds upon a core mission statement and research direction: The
awareness of today's urgent need to structure our computer systems as
adaptive systems able to constantly re-optimize in the face of changes
both exogenous (environmental) and endogenous (pertaining to internal
assets). IJARAS introduces a problem, which implies a research direction---a
thesis. The truth about this statement is drastically reverberating
through several domains, and in so doing several seemingly unrelated
research domains such as cross-layer adaptation for mobile devices and
business process re-engineering can be regarded as special cases of a
larger theory of systems. This vision paves the way to
cross-fertilization; and through that, IJARAS aims at becoming a
powerful tool to steer novel ideas and inject new research directions in
this area.
RECOMMENDED TOPICS:
IJARAS topics include (but are not limited to) the following ones:
* Mechanisms, both general and special-purpose, to
model, design, express, analyze, and develop
adaptive, autonomic and resilient systems;
* Analytical and simulation tools to measure a
system's ability to withstand faults and optimally re-adjust to new
environments;
* Robustness, or the emergence of desired properties throught
system evolution. In particular, emergence of safety;
* Conceptual models and paradigms to express and assess
evolvability;
* Methods, models, and architectures to manage and
express strategies and provisions for cross-layer adaptation;
* Design-time / run-time methods and tools to
identify and enforce optimal trade-offs between energy consumption,
performance, safety, and security;
* Scalable, maintainable, cost-effective
provisions, located at all system levels, to achieve adaptability and
dependability;
* Resilience engineering;
* Autonomic business process execution;
* Adaptive service-oriented computing;
* Evolutionary and embryogenic approaches to
autonomic computing, resilience, and adaptive systems;
* Recovery-oriented computing;
* Methods focusing on optimizing quality of
experience e.g. adaptive user interfaces;
* Adaptive fault-tolerance;
* Adaptive fault-masking;
* Adaptive data integrity;
* Autonomous and adaptive systems in robotics;
* Adaptive and context-aware multimedia;
* Personalization;
* Adaptive data mining;
* Adaptive fault models;
* Adaptive system models;
* Adaptive routing;
* Autonomic applications;
* Architecture-based adaptation;
* "Self-*" systems.
SUBMITTING TO IJARAS:
Prospective authors should note that only original
and previously unpublished articles will be
considered. INTERESTED AUTHORS MUST CONSULT THE JOURNAL'S

PRIOR TO SUBMISSION.
All article submissions will be forwarded to at least 3 members of the
Editorial Review Board of the journal for double-blind, peer review.
Final decision regarding acceptance/revision/rejection will be based on
the reviews received from the reviewers. All submissions must be
forwarded electronically to vincenzo dot deflorio at ua dot ac dot be.
