Automated dynamic reconfiguration using AI planning

The goal of this work is to automate the failure recovery in distributed component based systems using a planning based approach in dynamic reconfiguration. Our approach comprises of a three step process i.e. sense-plan-act (SPA). 'Sense' is the process of sensing the state of the system. 'Plan' is the process of finding a target configuration and a subsequent plan that takes the system from the present configuration to a target configuration. 'Act' is the process of executing the plan on the system. This work presents the preliminary ideas and the current status of this work.
