Self-* Programming: Run-Time Parallel Control Search for Reflection Box

We suggest a control search engine that finds a supervisory control dynamically and automatically by experimenting on plant replicas. The program search engine continuously produces a control which respects a set of desired specifications in the presence of dynamic changes in an environment. In order to detect the deterioration of an executed control due to a change in the environment, the control search engine constantly monitors the current control execution by obtaining a reliable record of the control-plant- environment interaction from a dependable entity called an observer and evaluating the quality of the interaction. A search for a new control is initiated if performance of the existing control is not satisfactory.
