Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutonomic Middleware Services for Just-In-Time Grid Services ProvisioningWail M. Omar, A. Taleb-Bendiab, Yasir KaramThe advent of widespread distributed computing environment, such as information systems and computational grids computing has enabled a new generation of applications that are based on seamless access, aggregation and interaction. The dramatic side of the story is a strong presence of the plea that those decentralized Grids are potentially affected by a number of primitives derived from their anatomy, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,579 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPredictive Autonomicity of Web Services in the MAWeS FrameworkEmilio P. Mancini, Massimiliano Rak, Roberto Torella, Umberto VillanoIn Web Services designs classical optimization techniques are not applicable. A possible solution to guarantee critical requirements is the use of an autonomic architecture, able to auto-configure and to auto-tune. This study presents MAWeS (MetaPL/HeSSE Autonomic Web Services), a framework whose aim is to support the development of self-optimizing predictive autonomic systems for Web service architectures. It adopts a simulation-based … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,067 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutonomic and Dependable Computing: Moving Towards a Model-Driven ApproachYuan S. Dai, Tom Marshall, Xiaohong GuanThe rapidly increasing complexity of computing systems is driving the movement towards autonomic systems that are capable of managing themselves without the need for human intervention. Without autonomic technologies, many conventional systems suffer reliability degradation and compromised security. Autonomic management techniques reverse this trend. This study describes the roles and functions of various autonomic components, and systematically reviews past and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,299 accessesView PDFCite
