Preface
A puting model, extends the von Neumann stored program control (SPC)
computing model to program and execute self-configuring, self-monitoring, self-
healing, self-protecting and self-optimizing (in short, self-managing or self-*)
distributed software systems. As opposed to anizing systems that evolve
based on probabilistic considerations, this approach focuses on the encapsulation,
replication, and execution of distributed and managed (regulated) tasks that are
specified precisely. Its innately parallel architecture (non-von Neumann), and its
architectural resiliency of anisms, are ideally suited to exploit the
many-core architecture and low-latency works emerging in the new
generation of data centers to
