随着大规模分布式（LSD）系统日益复杂，一种高效的监测机制已成为提高此类复杂应用性能和可靠性的关键服务。本文提出了一种可扩展、动态、灵活且无干扰的监测架构，用于管理大规模分布式（LSD）系统。这种架构被称为高保真（HiFi）监测系统，它能检测并分类有趣的原始事件和复合事件，并执行纠正或引导操作。在适当的时候，信息也会传播给管理应用程序，比如反应控制工具。所概述的解决方案通过支持新的监测技术，如基于分层过滤的监测和过滤器具体化，对相关工作进行了改进，这些技术提高了监测可扩展性和动态性，这是管理大规模分布式系统所必需的。高保真监测系统已在老道明大学得到实施和应用，用于监测和引导交互式远程教学（IRI），这是一个用于远程学习的大规模分布式多媒体系统。
With the increasing complexity of large scale distributed (LSD) systems, an efficient monitoring mechanism has become an essential service for improving the performance and reliability of such complex applications. The paper presents a scalable, dynamic, flexible and nonintrusive monitoring architecture for managing large scale distributed (LSD) systems. This architecture, which is referred to as the HiFi monitoring system, detects and classifies interesting primitive and composite events and performs either a corrective or steering action. When appropriate, information is also disseminated to management applications, such as reactive control tools. The outlined solution offers improvements over related works by supporting new monitoring techniques such as hierarchical filtering based monitoring and filter incarnation that improve the monitoring scalability and dynamism which are required for managing large scale distributed systems. The HiFi monitoring system has been implemented and used at the Old Dominion University for monitoring and steering Interactive Remote Instruction (IRI) which is a large scale distributed multimedia system for distance learning.
