Adaptation of a component-based system can be achieved in the coordination modelling language Paradigm through the special component McPal. McPal regulates the propagation of new behaviour and guides the changes in the components and in their coordination. Here we show how McPal may delegate part of its control to local adaptation managers, created on-the-fly, allowing for distribution of the adaptation indeed. We illustrate the approach for the well-known example of the dining philosophers problem, by modelling the migration from a deadlock-prone solution to a deadlock-free starvation-free solution without any system quiescence. The adaptation goes through various stages, exhibiting shifting control among McPal and its helpers, and changing degrees of orchestrated and choreographic collaboration. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
