Abstract
As a new vision in designing computer systems, organic computing is becoming more and more important. These systems are very flexible, autonomous and geared to the organic, human model. They are designed for self-optimizing, self-configuring, self-healing and self-protecting behavior. In the networking area we currently notice a centralization trend resulted in centralized servers, from where an immense number of distributed clients in worldwide locations are being controlled. Because of this centralization process ever fewer administrators are responsible for ever more systems. Concurrently the complexity of software and the dependence on local and distributed systems are growing with each new software version. Therefore it makes sense to apply the organic computing approach to a system that supports this increased requirements, adopting the behavior of human system administrators with the special focus of self-healing.
