The International Conference on Autonomous Infrastructure, Management and Se- rity (AIMS 2010) was a single-track event integrating regular conference paper s- sions, tutorials, keynotes, and a PhD student workshop into a highly interactive event. The main goal of AIMS is to look beyond borders and to stimulate the exchange of ideas across different communities and among PhD students. AIMS 2010 collocated the International Summer School in Network and Service Management (ISSNSM 2010). This unique summer school offers hands-on learning experiences in network and service management topics, which requires attendees to work in practical on-site courses combined with preceding short tutorial-like teaching sessions. AIMS 2010––which took place during June 23–25, 2010, in Zürich, Switzerland and was hosted by the Communication Systems Group CSG, Department of Inform- ics IFI, of the University of Zürich UZH––followed the already established tradition of an unusually vivid and interactive conference series in terms of the fourth conf- ence, after successful instantiations in Oslo, Norway 2007, Bremen, Germany 2008, and Enschede, The Netherlands 2009. AIMS 2010 focused especially on autonomous management aspects of modern networks and their services. The set of mechanisms, peer-to-peer-based schemes, scalability aspects, and autonomous approaches are of major interest. In particular the design, monitoring, management, and protection of networked systems in an efficient, secure, and autonomic manner are key to comm- cially viable and successful networks and services.

Autonomic networking aims to solve the mounting problems created by increasingly complex networks, by enabling devices and service-providers to decide, preferably without human intervention, what to do at any given moment, and ultimately to create self-managing networks that can interface with each other, adapting their behavior to provide the best service to the end-user in all situations. This book gives both an understanding and an assessment of the principles, methods and architectures in autonomous network management, as well as lessons learned from, the ongoing initiatives in the field. It includes contributions from industry groups at Orange Labs, Motorola, Ericsson, the ANA EU Project and leading universities. These groups all provide chapters examining the international research projects to which they are contributing, such as the EU Autonomic Network Architecture Project and Ambient Networks EU Project, reviewing current developments and demonstrating how autonomic management principles are used to define new architectures, models, protocols, and mechanisms for future network equipment. - Provides reviews of cutting-edge approaches to the management of complex telecommunications, sensors, etc. networks based on new autonomic approaches. This enables engineers to use new autonomic techniques to solve complex distributed problems that are not possible or easy to solve with existing techniques. - Discussion of FOCALE, a semantically rich network architecture for coordinating the behavior of heterogeneous and distributed computing resources. This provides vital information, since the data model holds much of the power in an autonomic system, giving the theory behind the practice, which will enable engineers to create their own solutions to network management problems. - Real case studies from the groups in industry and academia who work with this technology. These allow engineers to see how autonomic networking is implemented in a variety of scenarios, giving them a solid grounding in applications and helping them generate their own solutions to real-world problems.

Learn about the latest in cognitive and autonomous network management Towards Cognitive Autonomous Networks: Network Management Automation for 5G and Beyond delivers a comprehensive understanding of the current state-of-the-art in cognitive and autonomous network operation. Authors Mwanje and Bell fully describe todays capabilities while explaining the future potential of these powerful technologies. This book advocates for autonomy in new 5G networks, arguing that the virtualization of network functions render autonomy an absolute necessity. Following that, the authors move on to comprehensively explain the background and history of large networks, and how we come to find ourselves in the place were in now. Towards Cognitive Autonomous Networks describes several novel techniques and applications of cognition and autonomy required for end-to-end cognition including: • Configuration of autonomous networks • Operation of autonomous networks • Optimization of autonomous networks • Self-healing autonomous networks The book concludes with an examination of the extensive challenges facing completely autonomous networks now and in the future.
