Control theory provides solid foundations for developing reliable and scalable feedback control for software systems. Although, feedback controllers have been acknowledged to efficiently solve common classes of problems, their adoption by state-of-the-art approaches for designing self-adaptation in legacy software systems remains limited and at...

Among the different techniques that are used to design self-adaptive software systems, control theory allows one to design an adaptation policy whose properties, such as stability and accuracy, can be formally guaranteed under certain assumptions. However, in the case of software systems, the integration of these controllers to build complete...

This document is the first external deliverable of the SALTY project (Self-Adaptive very Large disTributed sYstems), funded by the ANR under contract ANR-09-SEGI-012. It is the result of task 1.1 of the Work Package (WP) 1 : Requirements and Architecture. Its objective is to identify and collect requirements from use cases that are going to be...
