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.

CD-JRA-1.2.2 Taxonomy of Adaptation Principles and Mechanisms — by Benedikt Liegener — last modified Jun 16, 2009 14:19

The deliverable presents the vision on the adaptation and monitoring research highlighting the research challenges, objectives, and an integrated adaptation and monitoring framework adopted within this workpackage. Starting from this framework, the refined conceptual models and taxonomies of SBA monitoring and adaptation are provided. The deliverable also demonstrates how the presented taxonomies are instantiated across functional SBA layers and involved research disciplines.

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

CD-JRA-1.2.4 Integrated adaptation and monitoring principles, techniques and methodologies across functional SBA layers — by Osama Sammodi — last modified May 17, 2010 16:04

This deliverable aims to present the research progress of the project partners since the establishment of the baseline cross-layer adaptation and monitoring techniques and methodologies in deliverable PO-JRA-1.2.3. This progress was focusing on the integration of the different monitoring and adaptation approaches applied by the different layers of the service-based applications. The first integration results cover several aspects of the SBA life-cycle. These research results are presented through the summaries of joint papers of the project partners
