Abstract

As today's businesses become more dependent on their networks and computing infrastructure for service delivery, failures in that infrastructure translate into business losses. Mechanisms are needed to control the behaviour of the ever more complex and heterogeneous distributed computing infrastructure. Management policies, derived from business goals and objectives, give structure to the use of technology and promise to add significant value to the management of today's complex distributed computing environments. Due to the intelligent agent concept's ability to facilitate the delegation of management functionality to autonomous agents operating on behalf of a management application, this has become one of the key technologies envisaged to realise the vision of distributed systems management. A framework for applying the concept of intelligent agents, as extensively defined within the AI community, to implement systems management policies, is proposed. A number of new concepts and mechanisms to facilitate the implementation are introduced.
分布式系统管理策略的实现:智能代理技术的应用框架
随着今天的企业越来越依赖于他们的网络和计算基础设施来提供服务,基础设施的故障会转化为业务损失。需要一些机制来控制日益复杂和异构的分布式计算基础设施的行为。源自业务目标和目的的管理策略为技术的使用提供了结构,并承诺为当今复杂的分布式计算环境的管理增加重要的价值。由于智能代理概念能够方便地将管理功能委托给代表管理应用程序操作的自主代理,这已成为实现分布式系统管理愿景的关键技术之一。提出了一个框架,用于应用智能代理的概念,在人工智能社区内广泛定义,以实现系统管理策略。介绍了一些促进实现的新概念和机制。
