An Approach to the Flexible Information/Service Workflow Managing in Distributed Networked Architectures
Ivan Demydov, Natalia Kryvinska, Mykhailo M. Klymash · 2009
An efficient management of information/service workflows and their easy, highly-adaptive configuring in various distributed networked architectures enables reliable and effective performance a lot of applications. Among them are the distributed Web portals with related database networks for e/m-business, socio-commercial nets, corporate/enterprise networks, software of NGN architectural platforms on the low and high system levels, and so on. Thus, we propose in this paper an approach that allows considering the architecture of any kind of networked systems, which could be described by the graphs - formalized, for example, with help of its adjacency matrix. This approach comprises a characterization and deployment of the networked system topological properties. Namely, it involves an a priory approximate determination of the basic network design characteristics, e.g., information/service workflows capacity and the reliability assessment including configuration changes in running systems.
