Abstract

This paper provides an automated system management and service provisioning approach for distributed devices. We consider a functional process model of the necessary phases for runtime management (MAPE-K proposal from the Autonomic Computing Initiative). This approach defines discrete steps within runtime system management which provide a simplified view of the system for service provisioning. Two issues emerge: communication from managed entities (or monitoring) may need special consideration; and this leads on to modeling communication between the system management phases proposed by MAPE-K.
