Autonomic Networks [PDF ebook] 

As the Internet becomes larger and larger, and consequently more
difficult to control and to manage, telecommunication operators,
manufacturers and companies require tools to perform management and
control tasks. A large number of tools coming from different areas
have been proposed, but these are not sufficient to handle an
evolving and dynamic environment.

This book presents and explains all the techniques which
integrate a certain level of intelligence (through intelligent
software agents for example) in order to represent knowledge, take
appropriate decisions, communicate with other entities and achieve
a self-managing network.
