In this chapter we try to capture common properties of these applications into an informal definition. Then later come up with a formal definition on the basis of a comprehensive set of attributes. This domain-independent definition of adaptive applications is then employed and exemplified in the field of IT-based Service Systems Management.} } @COMMENT{Bibtex file generated on }
