CD-JRA-2.3.8 Specifications of policies and strategies for distributed and multi-level adaptation by Benedikt Liegener — last modified Oct 24, 2012 16:29
This deliverable aims to present the research progress of the project partners about distributed and multi-level (also known as cross layer) adaptation. Previous works from the deliverables CD-JRA-1.2.2, CD-JRA-1.2.3, CD-JRA-2.3.2, CD-JRA-2.3.4, CD-JRA-2.3.6 provide the bases for local adaptation and monitoring. Local adaptations are done on a part of a system taken in isolation from the rest. In this deliverable the adaptation process is extended to take into account the distribution and all the layers (all the part) of a system (hardware, networks, operating systems, middleware, services, workflows...) in order to provide coherent and concurrent adaptations. The research results are presented through the summaries of joint papers that are classified according to the solutions they provide to manage distributed and multi-level adaptation.

PO-JRA-1.1.1 State of the art report on software engineering design knowledge and Survey of HCI and contextual knowledge by Andreas Metzger — last modified May 19, 2009 10:08
This deliverable surveys the state of the art in all areas related to the engineering of service-based applications with particular focus on all aspects related to adaptivity. Moreover, it provides an overview of various aspects concerning the way human beings interact with each other and with the computerized systems. This second aspect, even if not directly related to the Service-Oriented Computing context is being analyzed in order to understand if it could be a good source of inspiration for new challenges and new issues for service-based applications. The deliverable provides some initial thoughts about these challenges and issues. Further analysis and research will be developed in the following of the S-Cube project.
PO-JRA-1.1.3 Codified Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) Knowledge and Context Factors by Benedikt Liegener — last modified May 19, 2009 10:08
This deliverable reports the results from preliminary, exploratory research to explore the potential impact of different types of codified HCI knowledge and context factors on the development, deployment and adaption of service-based software applications. It reports additional literature review results undertaken to inform the research, scopes and structures the preliminary research through presentation of a series of conceptual meta-models of human-computer interaction (HCI) and context concepts, then describes results of exploratory research to investigate the effect of knowledge about users, user tasks, organisational culture and user experiences on development of service-based applications. Results inform future research in this work-package through summaries that identify what types of HCI and context knowledge are more likely to effect different activities during the development and deployment of service-based applications.
PO-JRA-1.2.1 State of the Art Report, Gap Analysis of Knowledge on Principles, Techniques and Methodologies for Monitoring and Adaptation of SBAs by Andreas Metzger — last modified Aug 06, 2009 10:08
The deliverable presents the state-of-the-art principles, techniques, and methodologies for the monitoring and adaptation of Service-Based Applications. The report also includes an overview of the different kinds of adaptation and monitoring principles and mechanisms, provides a classification of the existing approaches from the literature, and makes a comparison with the state-of-the-art approaches in other related areas of information systems.
PO-JRA-1.2.3-Baseline of Adaptation and Monitoring Principles, Techniques, and Methodologies across Functional SBA Layers by Osama Sammodi — last modified Jun 08, 2010 15:34
The goal of this document is twofold. First, the document aims to define the baseline for the adaptation and monitoring principles, techniques, and methodologies across functional SBA layers. For this purpose, the document describes the functional structure of SBA and shows the existing and potential adaptation and monitoring approaches and mechanisms within those layers. These mechanisms will form the basic building blocks on top of which the future cross-layer adaptation and monitoring frameworks and approaches will be founded. Using a set of scenarios, the document shows and classifies a set of problems and requirements that the cross-layer adaptation and monitoring framework should address. It is then shown how these requirements are mapped into the required principles and mechanisms and how the initial research results of the partners contribute to the framework. Second, the document provides a detailed survey and a classification of the monitoring approaches that focus on context and HCI aspects. In this way, the survey provides a starting point for defining and elaborating novel integrated monitoring approaches that consider context, user and user interaction aspects, which are subject of research in the work-package task T-JRA-1.2.3
PO-JRA-1.3.1 Survey of quality related aspects relevant for SBAs by Andreas Metzger — last modified May 19, 2009 10:09
Quality related aspects relevant for service-based applications cover a broad field of research, including work on quality modeling, QoS and SLA negotiation, as well as constructive and analytical quality assurance (like testing, monitoring and static analysis). This deliverable provides a survey of this broad field of “service quality” and identifies the key areas where research contributions are currently available. Based on this survey of the state of the art, important and emerging research challenges are identified that could be pursued in the future in order to close several of the gaps which emerge from the current state of the art on “service quality”.
