A three-phase decision making approach for self-adaptive systems using web services

Abstract

There has been a growing interest in self-adaptive software systems for their various use in different domains such as self-driving vehicles. The core of self-adaptive systems is the decision-making process which is based on a knowledge base. The knowledge base evolves as the system experiences more adaptations. However, the current practice mainly relies on a single-phase decision making using either the local knowledge base in the system (e.g.,
