Short description This book advances the understanding and application of self-adaptive intelligent systems; therefore it will benefit the long-term goal of replicating certain levels of brain-like intelligence in complex and networked engineering systems. It provides new approaches for adaptive systems within uncertain environments. This book provides readers with an opportunity to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the state-of-the-art, give rise to new research directions, and educate future professionals in.
