The last three decades proved Moore's Law. We witnessed
an exponential increase in processing power, memory
capacity and communication bandwidth and we expect
this increase to continue for at least another decade. The
effect is a growing complexity of computer systems and the
need for highly qualified administrators. The question must
be posed how computer systems can be managed in future
if we project the actual progression in systems intricacy.
This paper focuses on autonomic computing as a potential
solution. We describe how a distributed system can be built
to satisfy the demands for self-configuration, selfhealing,
context awareness and anticipatory. Furthermore we describe
our application example - Smart Doorplates - and the appliance
of the previously discussed demands to that system.
