Integrating ecosystem data into developer tools can be very beneficial but is usually complicated. By automating the routine parts of this task we can reduce the amount of work needed to develop these tools. We have developed a framework that allows developers to quickly develop new tools that use ecosystem data. This framework automates the execution of user-defined analyses on ecosystem proje...

The e-business ecosystem may be deviate from the equilibrium state in its development process. In this article the authors defined the e-business ecosystem health by combining ecological principles, and developed ecological indicators of e-business ecosystem health. The method of ecosystem health assessment (include biodiversity index method and index of biological integrity method) was introdu...

Because non-industrial private forests (NIPFs) comprise over 60% of forestland, NIPF owners may substantially affect timber supply and ecosystem quality. A dynamic model shows that NIPF owners may maximize timber income despite receiving utility from nontimber goods. The model links landowners' behavior to ecosystem management by introducing the ecosystem as an alternative source of nontimber g...

Associate models are powerful tools for large software ecosystem orchestrators to manage clusters within its ecosystem. At present, however, it remains unclear how these associate models are used in practice and of what elements such models consist. Without an overview of what associate models consist of, the concept of software ecosystem orchestration will remain elusive. In this paper, a conc...

This study examines the application of digital ecosystems concepts to a biological ecosystem simulation problem. The problem involves the use of a digital ecosystem agent to optimize the accuracy of a second digital ecosystem agent, the biological ecosystem simulation. The study also incorporates social ecosystems, with a technological solution design subsystem communicating with a science subs...

The establishment of industrial ecosystem is the key to realize the economical sustainable development. This article analyses the related literatures of industry ecosystem, and points out the industry ecosystem's hierarchy. Then on the basis of theoretical analysis, the article proposes the building strategy of the industry ecosystem, from three aspects of the microcosmic, the intermediate and ...

In this paper, the grid computing system is seemed as an ecosystem. The object of the optimization resource management is to promote the balance and evolution of the computing ecosystem. The architecture of the ecosystem model based grid resource management system is presented, which has the self-aware and selfoptimization mechanism. The knowledge discovery based self-aware mechanism has the ab...
