A Measurement Framework at Global and Local Levels for Hybrid Organic Computing Systems
摘要
Organic Computing (OC) systems adapt to changes in the system or environment to maintain system performance. Therefore, those systems integrate a control part, which can be implemented centralized (globally) or decentralized (locally)—mixed (hybrid) approaches are feasible. When determining the performance of such a system, various metrics can be observed, which generally cluster in system-specific and adaptation metrics. Whereas the first category is domain-specific and measures the system’s performance, the second measures the adaptation performance and can be used system-independently for evaluating OC systems. In this paper, we present a measurement framework that takes into account this split in quality attributes. We show how to apply the measurement framework in a hybrid OC system based on the example of platooning coordination.
