SCOPE

Modern and emerging software systems, such as industrial Internet of
Things, Cyber-Physical Systems, cloud and mobile computing, have to
operate without interruption. Self-adaptation and self-management
enable these systems to adapt themselves at runtime to preserve and
optimize their operation and quality in the presence of uncertain
changes in their operating environment, resource variability, new user
needs, attacks, intrusions, and faults.

Approaches to complement software-based systems with self-managing and
self-adaptive capabilities are an important area of research and
development, offering solutions that leverage advances in fields such
as software architecture, fault-tolerant computing, programming
languages, run-time program analysis and verification, robotics, among
others. Additionally, research in this field is informed by related
areas such as control systems, machine learning, artificial
intelligence, agent-based systems, and biologically inspired
computing. The SEAMS symposium focuses on applying software
engineering to these approaches, including methods, techniques,
processes and tools that can be used to support self-* properties like
self-protection, self-healing, self-optimization, and
self-configuration.

The objective of SEAMS is to bring together researchers and
practitioners from diverse areas to investigate, discuss, and examine
the fundamental principles, the state of the art, and critical
challenges of engineering self-adaptive and self-managing systems.
