Policy-Based Approach for Non-Functional Requirements in Self-adaptive and Self-Organizing Systems

Today’s distributed systems are forced to deal with high and unpredictable dynamics, increasing complexity, and the satisfaction of non-functional requirements (NFR) like, e.g., robustness, availability, and scalability. The research intend presented in this paper aims at providing a policy-based approach to satisfy NFRs in self-governed fashion.
