Autonomic computing systems mimic the human autonomic nervous system to realize a set of "self-*" properties, including self-configuration, self-healing, self-optimization, and self-protection. This book begins by introducing the concepts and requirements of autonomic computing and exploring the architectures required to implement such a system.

Autonomic computing systems mimic the human autonomic nervous system to realize a set of "self-*" properties, including self-configuration, self-healing, self-optimization, and self-protection. This book begins by introducing the concepts and requirements of autonomic computing and exploring the architectures required to implement such a system. The focus then shifts to the approaches and infrastructures followed by enabling systems, technologies, and services proposed for achieving the self-* properties. In the final section, real-world implementations reveal the applications of emerging autonomic systems, such as dynamic server allocation and runtime reconfiguration and repair.
