Uniframe Resource Discovery Service Monitoring and Management System

Abstract

Application development and deployment is moving from centralized sequential systems towards parallel and Distributed Computing Systems (DCS), and there has been a growing trend of developing software systems using a Component-based Software Development (CBSD) approach. UniFrame is one such approach providing a seamless framework for constructing a DCS by semi-automatic integration of heterogeneous distributed software components. UniFrame Resource Discovery Service (URDS) is the constituent of UniFrame, responsible for discovering software components. Since URDS consists of many concurrent processes, understanding its execution behavior is a major challenge. Such a discovery service requires a framework that provides information about the execution behavior of the software system. The research of this project designs and implements such a monitoring framework, UniFrame Resource Discovery Service - Monitoring and Management System (URDSMMS) for the URDS. The monitoring framework includes the tasks of collecting dynamic behavioral data, interpretation of this data, and display of the processed information. A user interface was also developed for easy operation of the monitoring system. To ascertain the benefits of this monitoring system, an experimental analysis using the prototype has also been performed.
