Abstract:
Nowadays, with the rising complexity of the service personalization in a heterogeneous and mobile context and the need to satisfy the End-to-End QoS, the service resources should be taken into account as a prominent resource as well as the network resources. Therefore, a high degree of self-sufficiency, self-management and automation is required in the service resource “service component” to enhance the service delivery. In this paper, we propose an autonomic service component ”ASC” based on an integrated QoS–agent that self-controls and self-manages the service resources to dynamically adapt the service resources in response to changing situations during the user’s session. To explain our proposal, we detail the mechanisms used to provision and monitor the service resource and to verify its conformity to the QoS contract established between the service providers and the customers during the exploitation. The issue of the ASC self-control and self-management is addressed according to the functional and non-functional (QoS) requirements in order to ensure the service continuity during the service delivery.
