One of the most distinguishing
requirements upon Information
and Communication
Technologies
is today's ever-changing, highly open dynamic
environments in which large-scale ICT systems are placed to operate.
Challenges for ICT systems engineering immediately arise including,
e.g., systems scalability, systems ultra-dependability, systems
convergence against uncertainty and emergence, and so forth. In recent
years, emergence, adaptation, self-organization, self-management, etc.
have received extensive interests in both academics and industries of
software, computing and communications.
Topics of particular interest include (but
not limited to) the followings.
