Approaches to decision-making in self-adaptive systems are increasingly becoming more effective at managing the target system by taking into account more elements of the decision problem that were previously ignored. These approaches have to solve complex optimization problems at run time, and even though they have been shown to be suitable for different kinds of systems, their time complexity can make them excessively slow for systems that have a large adaptation-relevant state space, or that require a tight control loop driven by fast decisions. In this paper we present an approach to speed up complex proactive latency-aware self-adaptation decisions, using …
