What is “Autonomics”?

An “autonomic system” is a system that operates and serves its purpose by managing itself without external intervention even in case of environmental changes.

Autonomic Computing - An approach to self-managed computing systems with a minimum of human interference. The term derives from the body's autonomic nervous system, which controls key functions without conscious awareness or involvement.
