Co-design of Distributed Systems Using Skeleton and Autonomic Management Abstractions

nomic Management Abstractions M. Aldinucci1 , M. Danelutto1 , and P. Kilpatrick2 1 Dept. Computer Science, Univ. of Pisa, Italy 2 Dept. Computer Science, Queen's Univ. of Belfast, UK Abstract. We discuss how common problems arising with multi/manycore distributed architectures can be effectively handled through co-design of parallel/distributed programming abstractions and of autonomic management of non-functional concerns. In particular, we demonstrate how restricted parallel/distributed patterns (or skeletons) may be efficiently managed by rule-based autonomic managers. We discuss the basic principles underlying pattern+manager co-design, current implementations inspired by this approach and some results achieved with a proof-of-concept prototype.
