Large amount of monitoring data can be collected from distributed systems as the observables to analyze system behaviors. However, without reasonable models to characterize systems...
Many strategies have been proposed to address the problems associated with managing increasingly complex computing systems. IBM's Autonomic Computing (AC) paradigm is one suc...
A live algorithm describes an ideal autonomous performance system able to engage in performance with abilities analogous, if not identical, to a human musician. This paper proposes...
Pervasive computing is becoming a reality, thanks to advances in wireless networking and increased popularity of portable devices. Users of these devices will need support to deci...
As the complexity of computing systems steadily increases, self-managing systems – as Autonomic Computing Systems (ACS) proposed by IBM – are an adequate approach to minimize ...
