While they are attractive solutions, due to their nature, designing self-organizing systems is not a straightforward task. Artificial evolution has been proposed as a possible way to build self-organizing systems, but there are still many open questions on how an engineer should apply this method for this purpose. In this paper we propose a design methodology for evolving self-organizing systems, that marks the major cornerstones and decisions the designer has to face, thus providing a practical set of guidelines. %G English %Z TC 6 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01291509/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01291509/file/978-3-642-54140-7_12_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01291509 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01291509 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC6 %~ IFIP-LNCS-8221
