“…We implemented a task farm behavioural skeleton such as the one described in [5,6] using SCA. A version of the very same behavioural skeleton on top of ProActive/GCM has already been implemented in the framework of the GridCOMP project [16].…”

“…As stated in [5,6] behavioural skeletons model common, reusable patterns of parallel computations as traditional algorithmic skeletons do. In addition, however, they provide self management facilities taking care of several distinct non functional 3 issues related to skeleton implementation.…”

“…We do not want to enter a complete description of behavioural skeletons implemented as components here. The interested reader may refer to [5,6] in case. What we want to point out is the kind of management provided by the autonomic manager embedded in the composite task farm behavioural skeleton component.…”

“…Behavioural skeletons were thus introduced in 2007 [5,6] in the framework of the CoreGRID and GridCOMP projects 1 . A behavioural skeleton is basically a skeleton integrated with an "autonomic manager" item taking care of all the non-functional aspects related to skeleton implementation, such as performance optimization, fault tolerance and security.…”

Abstract. Behavioural skeletons have been introduced as a suitable way to model autonomic management of parallel, distributed (grid) applications. A behavioural skeleton is basically a skeleton with an associated autonomic manager taking care of non-functional issues related to skeleton implementation. Here we discuss an implementation of a task farm behavioural skeleton exploiting SCA, the Service Component Architecture recently introduced by IBM. This implementation is meant to provide plain service/SCA users some efficient skeleton modelling common parallel application pattern and also to investigate the advantages and the problems relative to skeletons in the service world. Experimental results are eventually discussed.

“…The corrective actions are usually taken from a library of known actions and the chosen action is determined by the result of the analysis phase. Finally, the actions planned are applied to the application during the execute phase [13,14,15,16,17,18].…”

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.

Autonomic management can improve the QoS provided by parallel/ distributed applications. Within the CoreGRID Component Model, the autonomic management is tailored to the automatic -monitoring-driven -alteration of the component assembly and, therefore, is defined as the effect of (distributed) management code.This work yields a semantics based on hypergraph rewriting suitable to model the dynamic evolution and non-functional aspects of Service Oriented Architectures and component-based autonomic applications. In this regard, our main goal is to provide a formal description of adaptation operations that are typically only informally specified. We contend that our approach makes easier to raise the level of abstraction of management code in autonomic and adaptive applications.
