Network technologies now allow the deployment of systems involving a big number of devices and calculators. The overall system is the result of aggregation of autonomous and already existent resources. The dimensions and the complexity of such systems can lead to high management costs. Besides, the investments required to guarantee security and robustness may become unsustainable. Examples of this kind of systems are grid networks and enterprises' or governmental server clusters spread all over the world and used for business, social or scientific purposes. Research on autonomic systems, which studies methods and techniques for self-configuration, self-management and self-recovery (in case of software problems), has the general goal of developing decentralized infrastructures able to self-organize without human interaction, adapting their working strategies so that they can automatically optimize the usage of their resources and their overall efficiency, cutting down, as a consequence, costs and management complexity. The goal of the project is to study and define methods and techniques to guarantee security and robustness to decentralized systems in an autonomic fashion,. In other words, the security, cooperatively organized through a peer-to-peer network, must be able to defend system resources from botnets, fraudulent accesses and intrusions in general, while the robustness must guarantee the whole system to be reliable even in the occurrence of failures, crash of resources or presence of malicious nodes.
