Towards Seamless Adaptation: An Agent-Oriented Approach

Self-adaptive systems are able to autonomously adapt to changing user requirements and resource variability at runtime, therefore addressing the problem of software complexity and maintenance. Ongoing research on development methodologies for self-adaptive software points out a necessity for supporting, requirements-time, design-time and run-time, adaptivity. The main aim of our work is to devise a development process that enables seamless adaptation of software systems by exploiting requirements-, design- and run-time adaptation.
