TTM3 Design of Self-Adaptive Systems, laboratory

Course Type: Lab course, ETS Credit: 3.75

• The students will obtain general knowledge about self-adapting systems and different approaches to address the adaptation problem.
• Students will work in groups, where each of the groups will devise an example of self-adapting systems and implement it applying one of such approaches.

• Self-adaptation and variability: concepts, challenges, approaches, mechanisms
• Methodology in building self-adaptive applications
• Tools and support
• Development of an adaptation scenario and implementing adaptive applications that can be used in that scenario
• Writing a report describing the implementation and lessons learned

• TTM4115 Engineering Distributed Real-time Systems, or equivalent.
• Basic knowledge of the Unified Modelling Language (UML)
• Programming in Java

However, these are not strict requirements.

Selected papers and system descriptions to be determined.

Theoretical background will be provided in a number of lectures. The students will work in groups of 1 or 2 to develop self-adaptive applications in the lab. Each group will submit a report and make a presentation including a demonstration of their work.

The grading will be based on both the report and the presentation. The weight between the report and presentation is to be determined.
