Abstract:
Much effort has been made to provide a Cloud Computing (CC) autonomic management. Thus, related works are discussed and the need of a full autonomic model with stakeholders is presented. Moreover, this paper introduces a full model of cloud environment to support decision making in autonomic systems. This model is based on an economic utility view of cloud computing, control theory and autonomic computing. It innovates by introducing the concept of conjuncture and imaginary elements (essential elements to forecast and to a non-stationary model). Mathematical modeling is used to formally define a model and a model implementation overview is given.
