Self Healing Software System

Self Healing enables to discover, diagnose and react to disruptions. Self Healing components can detect system malfunctions and initiate policy-based corrective action without disrupting the IT environment. Corrective action could involve a product altering its own state or effecting changes in other components in the environment. Autonomic computing architecture has two main components Managed Element and AutonomicManager.
Managed Element has Sensors and Effectors explained as follows
Sensors : Provide mechanisms to collect information about the state and the state transition of an element. Get operations to retrieve information about the current state, or a set of management events(unsolicited, asynchronous messages or notifications) that flow when the state of the element changes in a significant way.
Effectors : The effectors are mechanisms that change the state (configuration) of an element. In other words, the effectors are a collection of set commands or application programming interfaces (APIs) that change the configuration of themanaged resource in some important way.
AutonomicManager has four phases : Monitor, Analyze, Plan and Execution.
Monitor
: Provides the mechanisms that collect, aggregate, filter, manage and report details (metrics and topologies) collected from the managed element.
Analyze : Provides the mechanisms to correlate and model complex situations (time-series forecasting and queuing models, for example). These mechanisms allow the autonomic manager to learn about the IT environment and help predict future situations and give suggestions of recovery actions in the case of failure.
Plan : Provides the mechanisms to structure the action needed to achieve goals and objectives. The planning mechanism uses policy information to guide its work.
Execute : Provides the mechanisms that control the execution
of a plan with considerations for on-the-fly
updates

Optimism

"See mistakes as valued lessons on the way to success. Life is like a moving vehicle with no brakes; if you spend too much time in the rearview mirror, you may hit a tree out the front window. Keep your rearview mirror smaller than your front window by using self-criticism as course correction feedback on the road to success. Victims say, "I'll never be able to succeed." Optimists perceive failures as temporary setbacks, rather than final verdicts. Build an expectation of success through hard work."

These are the words which have motivated or rather inspired me not to be pessimistic. Underestimating our own effort and trying to make more attempts to reach our goal is really worth, though not always. There should be a point of self-contentment which only the respective individual can know.
Optimism has been shown to be correlated with better immune systems in healthy people who have been subjected to stress.
So, "Be Optimistic"

Balanced Diet


Just as Yoga is good for leading a healthy and fruitful life, so is a nutritious and wholesome diet , a key to good health. A balanced diet could treat underlying causes of diseases and restore one to wholeness of mind.

Balanced Diet

A balanced diet is one, which provides all the nutrients in required amounts and proper proportions. It can be achieved through a blend of different food groups. The different food groups that should be included in the diet so as to get the necessary nutrients are cereals and millets, pulses, fruits & vegetables, milk and milk products, meat & meat products, sugar and fat. In addition, a balanced diet should provide non-nutrients like fibre, which provide positive health benefits.

The diet that one consumes must provide adequate calories, proteins, vitamins and minerals. Since the nutritional requirement varies, it is best to consult a dietician to prepare an individualised diet keeping in mind the age, sex, physical activity, the nutritional status, etc.

SuryaNamaskar is a yogic exercise which consists of ten different postures. The word "SuryaNamaskar" is an amalgamation of Sanskrit words which means prostrations (Namaskar) to the sun (Surya). It implies that one rise before sun rise in order to do this exercise or pay obeisance to the rising sun. This is around 5 to 5:30 AM. Of course, this exercise is good no matter what time you may use it, but it is best done while the stomach is empty, before eating. So, start your day with SuryaNamaskar that helps tremendously in achieving a healthy body, mind and spirit. I have been personally benefitted by SuryaNamaskar and Pranayama. Have a look at this ...

Investing Money

Though "Live in Present!!" should be our motto, we should never forget that this present decides our future. Wealth is one of the important aspects in our life. The best way to be secure in future, is the idea of investing money. The investors have to clearly identify their needs as per their age. Some may invest for the future of their kids, some may invest just to get higher returns as compared to their current financial position and some to be financially independent after their retirement.
I invested in one of the schemes of HDFC "Unit linked young star" prioritizing my son. For an instance, it would be a good option of investing 40000 per annum for 15 yrs. provided u are capable of that. But how much to invest ? This is something, which u have to plan. For leading a good future life, you should not ruin your present. Be economic not a miser.
