ASDS 2015 - International Workshop on Architecting Self-Managing Distributed Systems

Distributed computing systems, by their very nature, consist of hardware and software components with spatial structures executing temporal evolution of computations that are designed to deliver an intent. However as scale and fluctuations disturb the evolution often dictated by the distributed computing system interacting with its environment, assuring the evolution to deliver the intent is often ad-hoc and results in complexity and cost. There are calls for re-examining the distributed computing models to infuse cognition and thus introduce self-management properties to cope with such changes and deliver the intent efficiently. This workshop is meant to address the current limitations and examine new approaches to create self-managing distributed systems that improve resiliency, scaling and efficiency in delivering the system’s intent.
