Abstract

Many researchers of different fields are interested in building resilient systems that can absorb shocks and recover from damages caused by unexpected large-scale events; however, no common agreement on the definition of resilience exists. In this paper, we set out to establish a new challenging research discipline that we call "systems resilience", which provides a set of unified design principles for building resilient systems. We define a dynamic constraint-based agent model called SR-model, whose resilience can be evaluated through a range of properties.
