Mission-driven autonomous and adaptive resource management

Abstract

One or more systems, methods, routines and/or techniques for mission-driven autonomous and adaptive resource management, for example to achieve mission objectives in Quality of Service-managed networked systems, are described. One or more resource allocation algorithms and one or more associated control architectures including component services may be used. A system and/or method may collect input parameters, evaluate system workloads and performance metrics, optimize resource allocations, and adapt to changing workloads and performance metrics to achieve mission objectives. One or more objective functions, one or more constraints and one or more optimization algorithms may be utilized to achieve optimal allocation of resources to maximize the delivered value of an objective function and/or the system. The systems, methods, routines and/or techniques described herein may be autonomic and self-adaptive without requiring human administrators to pre-determine parameters (e.g., demands on resources or performance properties) for specific applications, processes and/or clients.
