“…Here a sequence of variable sized input data sets is presented to an application exploiting parallelism by using a data parallel behavioural skeleton. The application is a biometric identification application matching scanned fingerprints against a (large) fingerprint database in real time [15]. The size of input data, in terms of number of data items, is presented on the first plot of the Figure. The manager is given a contract asking to keep a data set dimension per worker constant (the bar in the second graph, plotting the dimension of the single worker data set).…”

We address the issue of autonomic management in hierarchical component-based distributed systems. The long term aim is to provide a modelling framework for autonomic management in which QoS goals can be defined, plans for system adaptation described and proofs of achievement of goals by (sequences of) adaptations furnished. Here we present an early step on this path. We restrict our focus to skeleton-based systems in order to exploit their well-defined structure. The autonomic cycle is described using the Orc system orchestration language while the plans are presented as structural modifications together with associated costs and benefits. A case study is presented to illustrate the interaction of managers to maintain QoS goals for throughput under varying conditions of resource availability.

“…In this work, we discuss a process-driven application, which makes use of GCM autonomic components to solve the problem of large-scale biometric identification [7], that has been developed as part of the activities of the Grid-COMP project [6]. In particular, we discuss how process-driven application development exploits the autonomic features provided by the underlying Grid software as well as the results, experiences, and lessons learned during application development focusing on the integration of autonomic GCM components and the process-driven approach.…”

Abstract. Today's business applications are increasingly process driven, meaning that the main application logic is executed by a dedicate process engine. In addition, component-oriented software development has been attracting attention for building complex distributed applications. In this paper we present the experiences gained from building a process-driven biometric identification application which makes use of Grid infrastructures via the Grid Component Model (GCM). GCM, besides guaranteeing access to Grid resources, supports autonomic management of notable parallel composite components. This feature is exploited within our biometric identification application to ensure real time identification of fingerprints. Therefore, we briefly introduce the GCM framework and the process engine used, and we describe the implementation of the application using autonomic GCM components. Finally, we summarize the results, experiences, and lessons learned focusing on the integration of autonomic GCM components and the process-driven approach.
