Network management has suffered from increases in business, system, and operational complexity. This has been exacerbated by the heterogeneity in management data as well as the high quality requirements of multimedia services. Autonomic networking manages this growing complexity by adding intelligence inside network nodes and network management applications. While most autonomic applications simply...
Most service and network management applications are developed to use vendor- and device-specific management data. These data are produced from different languages, and hence can have different representations of the same concept. We define a novel knowledge representation and mapping mechanism that uses ontological concepts and relations to generate a formal description for the Directory Enabled...
Seamless mobility has been described as providing collaborative mechanisms that enable a user to accomplish his or her tasks without regard to technology, type of media, or device. This paper examines how the FOCALE autonomic architecture, in conjunction with a novel understanding of the environment based on the integration of information models and ontologies, can realize these challenges.
B-SCP is a promising framework addressing alignment of IT with business strategy from a requirements engineering perspective. A problem with the B-SCP framework is that it is extremely difficult to track dependencies between requirements in a project of realistic complexity. We discuss how the RDF data model with OWL semantics, will greatly benefit an implementation using B-SCP. Our contribution is...
