Abstract
We present a methodology for software components that suggests
adaptations to specific conditions and situations in which the
components are used. The emergent software should be able to better
function in a specific situation. For this purpose, we survey its
background in metacognition and introspection, develop an augmented
data mining cycle, and invent an introspective mechanism, a
methodology for emergent software. This report is based on emergent
software implementations in adaptive information systems (Sonntag, 2010).
