We are becoming increasingly dependent on the continuous, proper 
functioning of large-scale, heterogeneous, distributed information systems. 
These systems are formed from large numbers of components originating from 
multiple sources assembled into complex and dynamically evolving 
structures.  The goal of the Willow project is to design a secure, 
automated framework for the proactive and reactive reconfiguration of 
large-scale, heterogeneous, distributed systems so that critical networked 
computing enterprises can tolerate intrusions and failures, and continue to 
provide an acceptable level of service. The framework consists of two 
interrelated elements: an application architecture for dynamically 
reconfigurable systems and a common infrastructure for building and 
securely operating those systems. Willow is a blend of results from the 
disciplines of fault tolerance, configuration management, and security, 
building on a foundation laid by our previous research efforts.

The Willow project is a joint effort of researchers from the University of 
Colorado at Boulder, the University of Virginia, and the University of 
California, Davis.
