ABSTRACT

The REU Site at Florida International University (FIU) will provide

participants with a venue to directly participate in state-of-the-art

research while exposing them to graduate school life and work in

academia and industrial research labs. REU students will participate in

team-oriented projects involving several areas of autonomic computing,

including self-management in mobile computing, autonomic anomaly and

misuse detection, adaptive network traffic monitoring and management,

autonomic storage systems, autonomic secure operating systems, and

testing of autonomic computing systems. The REU participants will each

learn from their team-members and advising faculty, maturing as

independent thinkers and developing critical communication, social, and

team-work skills. The Site's faculty will continue their mentoring

relationships with students after the completion of the summer program

to ensure that each project is completed and that each participant will

have the support needed to make the transition to graduate school.
