Intelligent Framework for the Management of Distributed Architectures

Abstract

The continuous decentralisation and distribution of software, hardware, and human resources depends on a number of fundamental factors including the ability to provide desired Quality of Service (QoS) on resources assembled dynamically from enterprises, service providers and customer systems. Despite recent developments there are still many challenges in efficient information delivery and management services for distributed architectures. In this work we are particularly interested with the use of intelligent decision making mechanisms for the management of distributed architectures. Our research aims at designing and developing an intelligent decision making mechanism for the management, distribution, control and optimisation of systems resources within large distributed systems which allows dynamic system architecture configuration and provisioning.
