Challenges

  • General:
    • How to design local rules achieving the desired global properties?
    • Non-trivial but approaches exist.
  • Chaos nature: Stochastic input. Description of complex current state is impossible, which makes it impossible to predict future states.
  • Communication:
  • Malicious nodes, faults, defects
  • Rare events may lead to major global effects. Repeatability of results
  • 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
  • Optimize probability to end up in desired state
