Abstract
In this chapter, we present some of the biologically-inspired approaches, developed within the context of the European project BIONETS for enabling autonomic pervasive computing environments. The set of problems addressed include networking as well as service management issues. The approach pursued is based on the use of evolutionary techniques — properly embedded in the system components — as a means to achieve fully autonomic behaviour.
