Miscommunication phenomena such as repair in dialogue are important indicators of the quality of communication. Automatic detection is therefore a key step toward tools that can characterize communication quality and thus help in applications from call center management to mental health monitoring. However, most existing computational linguistic approaches to these phenomena are unsuitable for ...

Our approach to creating self-healing systems is based on software architecture, where repairs are done at the level of a software system's components and connectors. In our approach, event-based software architectures are targeted because they offer significant benefits for run-time adaptation. Before an automated planning agent can decide how to repair a self-healing system, a significant inf...

The literature on computer reliability is replete with very convincing arguments for the need and the use of self-repair techniques, as a viable approach to significantly enhancing the reliability of both maintainable and nonmaintainable computers. However, it would seem that no comprehensive and coherent program for the development and optimal employment of such techniques exists. This means t...

Automated intrusion prevention and self-healing software are active areas of security systems research. A major hurdle for the widespread deployment of these systems is that many system administrators lack confidence in the quality of the generated fixes. Thus, a key requirement for future self-healing software is that each automatically-generated fix must be validated before deployment. Under ...

As reconfigurable devices’ capacities and the complexity of applications that use them increase, the need for self-reliance of deployed systems becomes increasingly prominent. Organic computing paradigms have been proposed for fault-tolerant systems because they promote behaviors that allow complex digital systems to adapt and survive in demanding environments. In this paper, we develop a susta...

Self-made shellac microcapsules and discoloration in different proportions were added to water-based coatings the influence of self-healing on coating performance for Ebiara solid boards was discussed. Through a three-factor, two-level orthogonal experiment, effects content addition microcapsules, explored; most influential factor microcapsule content. repair after 5 days repair, without adding...

Future network systems with myriads of elements must become selfmanaged: Beyond autoconfiguration, they will have to evolve by themselves as context and elements change and to manage their code base by themselves in a self-organized way. Building such autonomic communication networks requires a radical shift in current network technology. In this paper we discuss the issues involved in network ...
