Abstract

Today’s software systems are becoming increasingly distributed and decentralized and it would be important to have them adapt autonomously to dynamically changing, open-ended environments. Often the nodes of such systems have their own individual properties and objectives; interactions with other nodes or with humans may lead to the emergence of unexpected phenomena. We call such systems collective adaptive systems. Examples for collective adaptive systems are robot swarms, smart cities, voluntary peer-to-peer clouds as well as socio-technical systems and the internet of things.
