Coordination Aware Service Monitoring: Monitoring of Distributed Components Under Awareness of Several Coordination Mechanisms

This book presents a research on monitoring concepts for composite coordinated services. It deals with coordination models, explaining them in detail in the monitoring aspect, in order to decide where and how the information can be obtained to introduce the coordination awareness of monitoring. Due to the fact that the work, this book is based on, is done in a specialized context, significant technologies, predefined by this context, are also introduced and explained in detail. This predefined context also specifies an infrastructure for the upcoming monitoring approach, mainly for an environment where the monitored activities are distributed. Some context conditional limitations for the use of certain simplification technologies are included as well. Finally, this work presents a monitoring approach for the regarding context, concerning all previously presented aspects, technologies and especially a predefined infrastructure. The conclusion qualifies the resulting monitoring solution and gives an outlook on upcoming approach extensions and possible implementation limitation solutions.
