Sherif Abdelwahed, Nagarajan Kandasamy, Sandeep K. Neema · 2004
This paper describes an online control framework to design self-managing distributed computing systems that continually optimize their performance in response to changing computing demands and environmental conditions. An online control technique is used in conjunction with predictive filters to tune the performance of individual system components based on their forecast behavior. In a distributed setting, a global controller is used to manage the interaction between components such that overall system requirements are satisfied.
