Our results show that using the ABSA concepts as embodied in Rainbow enabled an independent team of developers to: (i) effectively implement the adaptation behavior required from such industrial systems; and (ii) obtain important benefits in terms of maintainability and extensibility of adaptation mechanisms.
We also examine the case where only 40% of the STAs are participating and implement the adaptation solutions (right column Figures 3(b), 3(d), and 3(f)).
We propose a design pattern, which implements the adaptation on offloading and enables a mobile application to offload computation on the fly.
Our paper makes three major contributions: We propose a design pattern, which implements the adaptation on offloading and enables a mobile application to offload computation on the fly.
Rarely do these processes go on to appraise, evaluate, or implement the adaptation strategies identified (Wilby and Dessai 2010).
The initial costs to implement the adaptations were assessed, suggesting that it is more cost-effective to accommodate future climate change impacts for existing and new houses by improving building envelop energy efficiency in cooling dominated regions, but installing on-site solar PVs instead in heating and cooling balanced regions.
For implementing the adaptations of software systems, an autonomous agent-based approach is adopted, in which autonomous agents are used to plan the achievement of architectural goals and cascade reactions caused by changes via using architectural style-specific knowledge and behavior rules defined for agents.
For synonymous mutations, we have implemented the Codon Adaptation Index.
Solutions are available and can be scaled up: IFAD, for instance, is already implementing the biggest adaptation programme for smallholder farmers, known as ASAP, which has proven that adaptation action is not only possible but also yields co-benefits for food security and mitigation for more than 5 million farmers to date.
A technique Case-based adaptation (CBA) is implemented in the adaptation stage of CBR so that adaptation becomes much easier.
