Quality-based Adaptive Resource Management Architecture (QARMA): A CORBA Resource Management Service

摘要

This paper describes the Quality-based Adaptive Resource Management Architecture, QARMA, a framework for resource management within CORBA. QARMA consists of three major components: the System Repository Service, the Resource Management Service, and the Enactor Service. QARMA serves as a basis for integration of existing CORBA services and management mechanisms into a single, coherent framework for resource management. QARMA supports the management of a wide variety of applications developed using various development paradigms, easily integrates with other management and infrastructure components that already exist as CORBA services, and is easily extended to allow the use of new resource management mechanisms as they become available.
