<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Arial;color:black">ICAC is the leading
conference on autonomic computing techniques, foundations, and applications.
Large-scale systems of all types, such as data centers, compute clouds, smart
cities, cyber-physical systems, sensor networks, and embedded or pervasive
environments, are becoming increasingly complex and burdensome for people to
manage. Achieving self-management requires and motivates research that spans a
wide variety of scientific and engineering disciplines, including distributed
systems, artificial intelligence, machine learning, modeling, control theory,
optimization, planning, decision theory, user interface design, data
management, software engineering, emergent behavior analysis, and bio-inspired
computing. </span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:'Times New Roman'"></span></p>
