Distributed systems that exploit software services from multiple clouds provide opportunities for software systems that address problems associated with systems of systems. In this paper we present an approach for the conceptual modelling of such systems, which is grounded in a distributed middleware that coordinates the client access to multiple clouds through a concept of mediator. Furthermore, each component of the middleware constitutes an abstract machine that is realised by three layers: a layer for normal operation, a layer for monitoring and detection of critical situations, and an adaptation layer, which in case of an identified anomaly changes the normal behaviour. The semantics of this autonomous system can be captured by linguistic reflection, for which reflective Abstract State Machines will be exploited.Read the full paper here: https://link-springer-com.proxy2.hec.ca/chapter/10.1007/978-3-319-69904-2_10
