D.A6a Predictable Service Engineering Methodology
This document, SLA@SOI deliverable D.A6a, represents the first of three annual reports documenting the progress of the topics and challenges addressed by Work Package (“WP A6 – Predictable Service Engineering”).
This work package specifically focuses on the engineering process for software systems that considers the additional requirements of an SLA-driven management at run-time. To this end, A6 leverages model-based techniques both from the engineering and the system management field to provide performance prediction for complex SOA stacks at design-time and system management at
run-time.
In this regard, WP A6 has divided the overall goal into a number of distinct areas: Design-time Prediction, Run-time Prediction, and Manageability Design. For each of these areas, this deliverable document provides a description of the activities, and illustrates the progress and results achieved during the course of the first year.
