This report examines selected aspects of autonomic computing and explores some of the strengths and weaknesses of that technology. It also makes connections between autonomic computing and current work in several initiatives at the Software Engineering Institute. Furthermore, it describes the potential and impact of autonomic computing for Department of Defense (DoD) systems and outlines some of the challenges for the DoD as it moves to exploit autonomic computing technology.
