Experiments in Adaptable Distributed Systems

Bharat BhargavaCCR-9901712一个适应性强的系统可以在执行过程中根据其环境优雅地重新配置。 正在进行的一系列实验将导致在应用程序，系统和网络层的适应性的政策，以满足服务质量的要求。 系统约束的影响，在确定的服务质量，可以保证给用户的调查。 正在确定将在应用程序和系统软件中实施的适应性准则和机制。 如何适应性的影响，在满足服务质量的要求，在不同的应用程序进行评估。 重点是两个基本的研究问题：适应性机制和基础设施和分布式系统的服务提供和控制的适应性质量。 这将导致发展专家规则/准则的系统适应性及其对各种应用的影响。 这将允许对系统软件的行为及其对各种新兴应用（如电子商务）的影响进行研究。数字图书馆和视频会议系统。 这项研究将允许实验先进的系统服务，协议，技术及其实验评估。 这些知识适用于协作计算、分布式文件系统、多媒体应用和实时处理中使用的各种系统软件。

Bharat BhargavaCCR-9901712An adaptable system can gracefully reconfigure based on its environment during execution. A series of experiments are being conducted that will lead in the development of policies for adaptability at the application, system, and network layer to meet the quality of service requirements. The impact of system constraints in determining the quality of service that can be guaranteed to the user is investigated. The adaptability guidelines and mechanisms that will be implemented in the application and system software are being identified. How adaptability impacts in meeting the quality of service requirements in different applications is evaluated. The focus is on two fundamentals research problems: Adaptability mechanisms and infrastructure and Adaptable quality of service provision and control for distributed systems. This will lead toward developing expert rules/guidelines for system adaptability and its impact on various applications. This will allow the research on the behavior of system software and its impact on various emerging applications such as electronic commerce. Digital libraries, and video conferencing systems. This research will allow experiments with advanced system services, protocols, techniques and their experimental evaluation. This knowledge is applicable to various system software used in collaborative computing, distributed file systems, multimedia application, and real-time processing.
