  abstract = {Intelligent technical systems, which combine mechanical, electrical
	and software engineering with methods from control engineering and
	advanced mathematics, go far beyond the state of the art in mechatronics
	and open up fascinating perspectives. Among these systems are so-called
	self-optimizing systems, which are able to adapt their behavior autonomously
	and flexibly to changing operating conditions. The Collaborative
	Research Center 614 "Self-optimizing concepts and structures in mechanical
	engineering" pursued the long-term aim to enable others to develop
	dependable self-optimizing systems. Assuring their dependability
	poses new challenges. However, self-optimization also offers the
	possibility to adapt the system's behavior to improve dependability
	during operation.
	
	
	The aim of this book is to provide methods and techniques to master
	the challenges and to exploit the possibilities given by self-optimization.
	The reader will be able to develop self-optimizing systems that fulfill
	and surpass today’s dependability requirements easily.
	
	
	This book is directed to researchers and practitioners alike. It gives
	a brief introduction to the holistic development approach for self-optimizing
	mechatronic systems and the steps required to assure a dependable
	product design starting with the very early conceptual design phase.
	A guideline to select suitable methods for each step and the methods
	themselves are included. Each method is individually introduced,
	many examples and full references are given.},
