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 situated 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.
The CODS 2009
conference aims at providing an international forum for the researchers
and practitioners in the related subject areas to exchange research
results, experiences, as well as the visions of the future and the
scientific and practical problems that challenge the current technology
development.
