Abstract

In this position paper, we examine factors, such as trust and usability, which can affect the adoption of an autonomic system. We argue that a system that exhibits initiative and strong communication skills is more likely to be adopted, and propose to treat humans as modeled, managed elements in an autonomic control loop to achieve these goals. We then propose some synergistic design ideas to make communicating with users more effective, and to allow the system to learn from the users' actions.
