  abstract = {Today, self-adaptation and self-management approaches to
  software engineering are viewed as specialized techniques and reach a
  somewhat limited community. In this paper, I overview the current state and
  expectation of self-adaptation and self-management impact in industry and in
  premier publication venues and identify what we, as a community, may do to
  improve such impact.

  In particular, I find that common evaluation methodologies make it
  relatively simple for self-adaptation and self-management research to be
  compared to other such research, but not to more-traditional software
  engineering research. I argue that extending the evaluation to include
  comparisons to traditional software engineering techniques may improve a
  reader's ability to judge the contribution of the research and increase its
  impact. Finally, I propose a set of evaluation guidelines that may ease the
  promotion of self-adaptation and self-management as mainstream software
  engineering techniques.},
