These eight elements can be expressed in terms of properties that a system
should posses in order to constitute autonomicity [
156
]. These are described
constructs that constitute these properties.
8.1.2 Autonomic Properties
System autonomicity corresponds to the presence of the properties depicted in
Fig.
8.1
[
156
]. The general properties of an autonomic (self-managing) system
can be summarized by four objectives as follows:
•
Self-configuring
•
Self-healing
•
Self-optimizing
•
Self-protecting
