Organic Computing Doctoral Dissertation Colloquium 2017

This book presents the results of the OC-DDC 2017. Successful participants have been invited to extend their abstracts submitted to the event towards a full book chapter by taking reviews and feedback received at the event in Bochum into account. Seven of the participants prepared a contribution to this book, helped to perform a sophisticated review process, and finally came up with interesting articles summarising their current work in the context of Organic Computing. Hence, the book also gives an overview of corresponding research activities in the field in Germany for the year 2017. The collection of contributions reflects the diversity of the different aspects of Organic Computing. Furthermore, group discussions during the OC-DDC resulted in a contribution that aggregates the ideas of the participants related to applied machine learning for Organic Computing systems.
