Ensemble-Based Modeling Abstractions for Modern Self-optimizing Systems

Abstrakt

In this paper, we extend our ensemble-based component model DEECo with the capability to use machine-learning and optimization heuristics in establishing and reconfiguration of autonomic component ensembles. We show how to capture these concepts on the model level and give an example of how such a model can be beneficially used for modeling access-control related problem in the Industry 4.0 settings.

We argue that incorporating machine-learning and optimization heuristics is a key feature for modern smart systems which are to learn over the time and optimize their behavior at runtime to deal with uncertainty in their environment.
