The document discusses challenges with traditional software engineering paradigms for complex adaptive systems and proposes a new "liquid computing" paradigm. Specifically: (1) Traditional approaches fail to address the increasing complexity of software and need for self-adaptation. (2) Existing paradigms lose information during deployment and development that is needed for self-adaptive systems. (3) The "liquid computing" paradigm blends development and runtime, uses autonomous learning techniques, distributes control across systems, and maintains a library of strategies.
