Abstract We consider two aspects of survivability, namely survival by adaptation and survival by protection. We show how the Quality Objects (QuO) distributed adaptive middleware framework enables us to introduce these aspects of survivability in a flexible and systematic manner. We describe a toolkit for developing adaptive applications and demonstrate how more survivable applications can be built using the toolkit.
