Progress 1/27/05

Done:
+ update drafted paper
The paper has been revised in section 1-4.
- The symbiotic behavior names have been changed (fig 3,4)
- Healthy level table has been added in the platform attributes section
- I rewrite the section 4: symbiotic network.
- I also added the related work section in the drafted paper (section 6)
* The simulation part need to be added soon. I am waiting for simulator
programming.

Progress 17-23 Jan 05

Done:
+ Model platforms as biological entities
- Platforms are deployed to nodes (hosts) by using deploy file (file.pf). The pf file also contains platform attributes. (initiate energy, node)
- Platforms can replicate, death
- The graphic result when simulator working is showed.
- The result of platforms after simulation is showed. (#platform alive/death, generation, energy, #replication, birth time, life time, etc. )

Task:
I will do:
+ Simulator Programming
- Add healthy level to host (node)
- Show some result that can be used in the sci05 paper.
+ Yan's document comment

- Add one type of static network

My Progress 1/9/05

Done

• Reading paper and revised version 1
• Reading realated papers
• - Autonomic Computing x 3 Papers
• Study some part of Simulation
• Submit comment for simulation document (Yan's document)

Admin work

• Got fist payment
• Applied for TA (cs446: internetworking)

Nest Task (not done)

• Simulation document comment on the file
• Update PPT paper review
• Revise main document (sci005 document)
• + Add realate work
• + Simulation Plan
• Write Code

Plan
+ simulation code
I'll add one more agent call platform so we will have regular agent and platform agent.
Then, I will write some code to let regular agent require platform agent to work on the host first.
The platform agent works as platform entity in my research. Therefore, we can simulate and get some result from this idea.
The problems, this is not totally true as we plan in the research. But it save the times and it is good step to be samiliar with the Java programming. The next step we can change the place of platform service code to be in the platform agent.

+ Document
I have to write related work and simulation as soon as possible. The first version should be finished before this Tuesday!
