Abstract

In this paper we present a distributed hierarchical system management concept for dynamic collaboration systems. Dynamic collaboration systems are composed of platforms containing resources; the platforms join forces to achieve a common mission. The automated system management concept discussed here is called the Self-Managing Distributed Systems(SMDS) concept.The SMDS concept distinguishes four segments of management: the Planning Segment, the Instantiation Segment, the Monitoring Segment and the Federation Segment. In this paper we will introduce these four segments, explain the functionality in each segment and how the segments interact. Furthermore, we will compare this SMDS concept with a service oriented approach.
