Alfonso Castro, Beatriz Fuentes, Jose Antonio Lozano, Begona Costales, Víctor A. Villagrá · 2010
Nowadays the number of services whose functionalities need to adapt across heterogeneous networks with different technological and administrative domains has substantially increased. Each domain involves different management procedures; therefore the comprehensive management of multi-domain services presents serious problems. This paper is focused in fault management aspects and presents a novel management architecture for multi-domain environments. The architecture is based on a distributed set of agents, using semantic techniques. A Shared Knowledge Plane has been implemented to ensure communication between agents.
