Talk:Autonomic computing

Should this be merged with Autonomy-oriented computation?

I don't know, but they seem very similar? Guroadrunner 08:50, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

people/arguments for Merge

• One just presents a representation of a feedback loop that shows the aspects of an autonomic system. Merge they are taking about the same thing.

other stuff

Autonomic Computing is best defined as self-managing systems. Self-managing systems are ones that are self-configuring, self-healing, self-optimizing, and self-protecting. Autonomic Computing has spawned an industry-wide initiative aimed at reducing the complexity of technology in order to enable the full realization of the benefits possible from a given technology or set of technologies that together form a system. A useful analogy is the human autonomic nervous system that manages many complex functions enabling humans to focus on higher level tasks.

IPsoft

IPsoft, formed September 2, 1998, is a managed services provider, offering solutions to enterprise customers for outsourcing global Internet operations. IPsoft deploys, manages, secures, scales, and monitors e-business systems using its in-house automation technology, which automates functions otherwise done manually. IPsoft manages its systems via a worldwide network of data centers and Network Operations Centers located in North America, Europe and India.

BENEFITS OF AUTONOMIC COMPUTING

“Autonomic Computing” is the fixing of IT issues automatically without human intervention. Such a feature is enabled via an historical knowledge base which correlates layers of IT and how they inter-relate.

The 2 main benefits of Autonomic Computing are:

1. better uptime as issues are resolved quicker

2. reduced IT costs as less human resource is required

This reads a little too much like it came out of an IBM cheerleader. Terms like "visionaries" should probably be avoided. (and IPSoft is definitely spamming.) -- 76.66.63.148 03:51, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Gender Neutrality

What are the rules governing sections like in "Autonomic Systems" where the "human operator" is given the pronoun "he"? Isn't this outdated convention? I've seen a lot of people start to use "she" in circumstances like this (I guess to shift the balance back the other way). Subnet0 (talk) 12:18, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Citations and References

On July 27 2010 I added a few 'citation request' tags to the article. In some cases, this meant adding a new tag, and in other cases, it meant removing an existing citations due to content and verifiability (For reference: WP:CITE WP:VERIFY).

Furthermore, except for a few examples, this page is drastically missing citations for key assertions and article content. Due to few quality sources for content, this article appears to suffer from original research. --FuturePrefect (talk) 21:16, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

Autonomic Computing → Autonomic computing –

Per WP:MOSCAPS ("Wikipedia avoids unnecessary capitalization") and WP:TITLE, this is a generic, common term, not a propriety or commercial term, so the article title should be downcased. Lowercase will match the formatting of related article titles. Tony (talk) 12:25, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
