A Bio-Inspired Approach Towards Autonomy in Digital Ecosystems: The Domesticated Wolf Paradox

抄録

We propose to promote autonomy in digital ecosystems so that it provides agents with information to improve the behaviour of the digital ecosystem in terms of stability. This work proposes that, in digital ecosystems, autonomous agents can provide fundamental services and information. The final goal is to run the ecosystem, generate novel conditions and let agents exploit them. A set of diversity measures must will be defined as well. We propose an outline of some global indicators, such as heterogeneity and diversity, and establish relationships between agent behaviour and these global indicators of system stability.
