Abstract

Internetware is receiving increasing attention. It envisions a new, yet promising software engineering paradigm for constructing complex systems that are situated in open and dynamic networked environments. Typical examples of Internetware systems include Internet-based and cyber-physical systems. These systems, although having addressed some practical needs, may still be subject to various environment and adaptation risks at runtime. In this paper, we highlight the necessity and challenges of managing these risks. We overview existing work and present our efforts in identifying and controlling the risks. We argue that by managing these risks, the Internetware paradigm proceeds in a quality-assured direction.
