New paradigms for communication/networking systems are needed in order to tackle the emerging issues such as heterogeneity, complexity and management of evolvable infrastructures. In order to realize such advanced systems, approachesshould become task- and knowledge-driven, enabling a service-oriented, requirement, and trust-driven development of communication networks. The networking and seamless integration of concepts, technologies and devices in a dynamically changing environment poses many challenges to the research community, including interoperability, programmability, management, openness, reliability, performance, context awareness, intelligence, autonomy, security, privacy, safety,and semantics. This edited volume explores the challenges of technologies to realize the vision where devices and applications seamlessly interconnect, intelligently cooperate, and autonomously manage themselves, and as a result, theborders of virtual and real world vanish or become significantly blurred. Autonomic communication is an open long-term research initiative that is gaining momentum both abroad and in the States (more research is currently being done abroad than in the US) Both IEEE and IFIP are now sponsoring workshops in thisarea Will provide the first systematic and comprehensive treatment of this new area
