This book presents a comprehensive reference of state-of-the-art efforts and early results in the area of autonomic networking and communication. The essence of autonomic networking, and thus autonomic communications, is to enable the self-governing of services and resources within the constraints of business rules. In order to support self-governance, appropriate self-* functionality will be deployed in the network on an application-specific basis. The continuing increase in complexity of upcoming networking convergence scenarios mandates a new approach to network management. This Volume explores different ways that autonomic principles can be applied to existing and future networks. In particular, the book has 3 main parts, each of them represented by three papers discussing them from industrial and academic perspectives. The first part focuses on architectures and modeling strategies. Part two is dedicated to middleware and service infrastructure as facilitators of autonomic communications, and the last part addresses autonomic networks, specifically how current networks can be equipped with autonomic functionality and thus migrate to autonomic networks.

Intelligent agents and multi-agent systems (MAS) represent the next big step in the development of next-generation software systems, especially when consid- ing large scale distributed applications consisting of several sub-components with behavior that is increasingly di?cult to predict. This is supported by imp- tant research and development results and reinforced by the increasing uptake of agent-based solutions and services for real-world industries. In fact, software agent technology successfully addresses a number of highly relevant issues, like - ?cient resource distribution, scalability, adaptability, maintainability, modularity, autonomy,self-sustainability,anddecentralizedcontrol,byprovidingpowerfulc- cepts, metaphors and tools. The mentioned issues are often regarded as essential non-functional properties of emerging software architectures and systems. The high importance of agent-related research and development can be seen from the fact that currently about 100 major projects are funded in Europe only - see http://www. agentlink. org/resources/agentprojects-db. php - and more than 100 academic and commercial software tools are publicly advertised - see http://www. agentlink. org/resources/agent-software. php. And these numbers are still growing. As a result of the enormous e?orts the stage of maturation has reached a level, which encourages commercial players to increasingly adopt mul- agent systems concepts and technologies for the development of a variety of re- world applications in di?erent domains such as logistics, e-commerce, and - tertainment. In this perspective, concrete agent-driven research and development results (such as applications, platforms, and development kits) substantially c- tribute to promote the technology and increase its exploitation for industrial - lutions.
