Lizzie et Niller veulent adopter un enfant parce qu'ils ne peuvent pas en faire un, le sperme de Niller ne valant rien du tout...

Service composition is today mostly a manual process and automated service creation techniques are not ready for prime time in IT and network system development. This paper presents the Service Refinement Cycle as an integrated framework for dealing with the service lifecycle composed of stages like service creation, deployment, execution and management. The main realization of the cycle is the Service Code, which contains executable specifications (code) that may run at any compatible engine.

Policy-based dynamic resource management may involve interaction between independent decision-making components which can lead to conflicts. For example, conflicts can occur between the policies for allocating resources and those setting quotas for users or classes of service. These policy conflicts cannot be detected by static analysis of the policies at specification-time as the conflicts arise from the current state of the resources within the system and so can only be detected at run-time. In this paper we use policies related to quality of service (QoS) provisioning for configuring differentiated services (DiffServ) networks to illustrate techniques for the dynamic detection and resolution of conflicts. Configuration includes implementing network provisioning decisions, performing admission control, and adapting bandwidth allocation dynamically according to emerging traffic demands. We identify possible conflicts between policies that manage the allocation of resources, and we also investigate conflicts that may arise between these policies and higher-level directives refined at the dynamic resource management level, acting as constraints. The paper shows how event calculus can be used to detect conflicts, focusing on the ones that emerge at run-time, and provides an approach for specifying policies to automate conflict resolution. The latter is demonstrated through our initial implementation of a dynamic conflict analysis tool

Networks are growing in size and complexity, resulting in increased alarm volume and number of unfamiliar alarms. Often, there is no proportional increase in monitoring personnel and response time to faults suffers. GTE deployed Telephone Operations Network Integrated Control System (TONICS) in 1993 to support its network management operations. To stay competitive in the face of continued staff reductions, increase

The trends for pushing more operational intelligence towards network elements to achieve more context-aware and self-managing behavior often requires elements to gather network knowledge without necessarily binding explicitly to all of the potential sources of that knowledge. Though event-based publish-subscribe models allow efficient distribution of knowledge where the event types are known globally, dynamic service chains, ad hoc networks and

This paper details an application of model-driven development undertaken within the Celtic initiative project Madeira. The objective of Madeira is to apply model-driven approaches to investigate large-scale distribution techniques in network management. So far, the ...

The increasing complexity of enterprise applications, the expanding number of networked machines, and the rapid deployment of Internet-based business applications (E-commerce), emphasize the importance and value of application management. One of the main problems in current application management products is the amount of time and effort needed to install and customize them. Application auto-discovery is a key technology for solving
