SASE 2008: First Workshop on Self-Adaptive Software Engineering

The goal of this workshop is to exchange opinions, advance ideas, and discuss the state of the art of approaches and results among researchers and practitioners who investigate software engineering concepts, methodologies, and tools to design and evolve self-adaptive software. Adaptability is considered as a critical enabling capability for many software-based systems, which must adapt themselves to changing conditions in both the supporting computing and communication infrastructure, as well as in the surrounding physical environment.
