Abstract
A ubiquitous computing system could be constructed not only with one computer but with networks of computers (or ether devices with computing power) embedded in everyday objects. For this, dependability must be guaranteed for each single component of a system and for the whole system which might be more than just a sum of its components. This paper proposes an autonomic self-management mechanism that ran operate for 24 hours/day with the minimum human intervention. In addition, we validate the autonomic fault management scheme based on a workload model derived from the system log analysis.
