Ensembles--software-intensive systems with massive numbers of nodes or complex interactions between nodes, operating in open and non-deterministic environments and dynamically adapting to changes in their environment or requirements--pose many challenges to software development. We present first steps towards a system model for ensembles that allows us to express requirements using a wide variety of logics and fitness criteria over arbitrary preorders. Using this system model we then give a precise definition of "black-box" adaptation and show how this naturally leads to a preorder of adaptability on ensembles.
