Executive Summary
  • Increasing complexity of distributed application
    systems leads customers to desire automated
    management of such systems.
  • Work at Agilent/Glasgow has yielded an
    architectural pattern and an hierarchical
    architecture for closed-loop management of
    distributed application systems.
  • Imperial has established itself as one of the
    premier research groups for policy-based
    management.
  • AMUSE is focused on integrating these
    complementary competencies to address automated
    management of e-Health applications

Layered and Federated SMCs
  • Layered SMCs application / services / network
  • Peer SMCs (peer devices, peer networks, SLAs)



8
SMC Composition
The enclosing SMC programs the nested SMCs
9
SMC Interactions
  • Layered - Network SMCs interact with application
    SMCs, the SMC controlling a heart rate monitor
    reports to a diagnostic management device,
  • Federated, Peer-to-peer SMCs for peer devices
    interact with each other.
  • SMC Composition Need to be able to compose SMCs
    into larger structures e.g., home patient
    monitoring SMCs program individual device SMCs

10
Research Issues
  • SMC Architecture
  • What are the core components?
  • How to add/remove devices, controllers, and
    management services dynamically extensibility
    How to instantiate and deploy SMCs?
  • SMC Interactions
  • How to define peer-to-peer negotiation and SLAs?
  • How to refine higher level policies for lower
    level SMCs?
  • How to expose/hide SMC management functionality

11
AMUSE Work Packages
  • The specification of generic and extensible SMCs.
    Within an SMC, the primary areas of research are
    the core services for Interaction/Adaptation,
    Policy, Context, and Measurement/Control.
  • Investigations into the federation of SMCs, the
    layering of SMCs, and their integration with
    legacy management systems/technologies.
  • Investigations into the composition of SMCs
    within a single administrative domain,
  • The development of two e-Health prototypes to
    validate the SMC architecture.
