ACHIEVING ROBUSTNESS IN ADAPTIVE SYSTEMS - Can Hierarchies Help?

Abstract

In this paper we present the latest research directions within the investigation of adaptive autonomous systems. Originally inspired by biological solutions for performing adaptive processes, we have engaged into investigating organisation of living systems with the aim of extracting useful principles for man–made systems. The work so far has demonstrated in simulation how principles of endocrine system can be used for the initiation and support of adaptive processes until the adaptation to new environmental fluctuation is achieved. Our current research considers robustness of the system and sets the stage for the investigation into hierarchical organisation of such a system. The main question we ask is if the robustness of the proposed system could be improved if hierarchies in its architecture and (or) functional operation are taken into account.
