Group 2

Challenges

• General: How to achieve local rules form global properties?
• Stochastic (chaos) nature of ..., but optimize probability to end up in desired state
• Repeatability of results

• Malicious nodes, faults, defects

• Modeling and design
• Testing a proposed self-organizing system with respect to a given goal can be difficult (many entities, large operational range)

Ideas

• "Immune system" as an umbrella around self-organizing system
