Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a divide and conquer approach for the adaptation of distributed applications management by a potentially large number of interacting middleware instances. The method aims at a quick partitioning of the overall problem into smaller sub-problems that can be solved almost independently. The partitioning is found by symbolic reasoning and by applying expert knowledge that is encoded in explicit rules.
