SASO2015 Accepted Papers for SASO2015

Full Papers, by session

Paper Session #1, Collective Decision Making
The papers in this session all present innovative approaches to coming to collective decisions in a distributed fashion. At the same time, the quality of the solutions is an important issue. While the areas of application are diverse, the underlying concepts can be applied in a variety of self-adaptive and self-organising systems.
Oliver Kosak, Gerrit Anders, Florian Siefert and Wolfgang Reif. An Approach to Robust Resource Allocation in Large-Scale Systems of Systems
Jonathan Bonnet, Marie-Pierre Gleizes, Elsy Kaddoum, Serge Rainjonneau and Grégory Flandin. Multi-satellite mission planning using a self-adaptive multi-agent system
Patricio Petruzzi, Dídac Busquets and Jeremy Pitt. A Generic Social Capital Framework for Optimising Self-Organised Collective Action
Nicolae Vladimir Bozdog, Spyros Voulgaris, Henri Bal and Aart van Halteren. PeerMatcher: Decentralized Partnership Formation
Paper Session #2, Machine Learning
The common denominator of the papers in this session is that they use or propose machine learning techniques to improve the performance of SASO systems. Effective learning can be a key component in ensuring the long-term viability of self-adaptive and self-organising systems and in realising the many advantages over traditional systems.
Lukas Esterle, Bernhard Rinner and Peter Lewis. Self-organising Zooms for Decentralised Redundancy Management in Visual Sensor Networks
Alexander Schiendorfer, Christoph Lassner, Gerrit Anders, Wolfgang Reif and Rainer Lienhart. Active Learning for Efficient Sampling of Control Models of Collectives
Lei Fang and Simon DobsonTowards Data-centric Control of Sensor Networks through Bayesian Dynamic Linear Modeling
Alessandro Lulli, Laura Ricci, Emanuele Carlini and Patrizio Dazzi. Distributed Current Flow Betweenness Centrality
Paper Session #3, Engineering and Analysing SASO Systems
When regarding self-adaptive and self-organising systems from an engineering perspective, both their design as well as their analysis are relevant topics that need to be addressed to take into account the differences to traditional systems. The papers in these sessions offer novel contributions in these areas, illustrated in diverse settings.
Mirko Viroli, Jacob Beal, Ferruccio Damiani and Danilo Pianini. Efficient Engineering of Complex Self-Organizing Systems by Self-Stabilising Fields
Gauthier Picard, Camille Persson, Olivier Boissier and Fano Ramparany. Multi-agent Self-organization and Reorganization to Adapt M2M Infrastructures
Kristof Coninx and Tom Holvoet. Darwin in Smart Power Grids - Evolutionary Game Theory for Analyzing Self-Organization in Demand-Side Aggregation
Shane Clark, Jacob Beal and Partha Pal. Distributed Recovery for Enterprise Services
Paper Session #4, Mobile Robotics
The area of mobile robotics is one in which self-adaptation and self-organisation play an especially prominent role. The papers in this session illustrate how SASO techniques allow more flexible, robust, and performant solutions in this up and coming domain.
Arles Rodriguez, Jonatan Gomez and Ada Diaconescu. Foraging-inspired Self-organisation for Terrain Exploration with Failure-prone Agents
Evert Haasdijk. Combining Conflicting Environmental and Task Requirements in Evolutionary Robotics
