As the functionality is provided by a set of dynamically composed distributed services, in order to achieve a management objective multiple operations have to be applied over the distributed elements of the managed infrastructure. Moreover, the manager must cope with the highly heterogeneous characteristics and management interfaces of the runtime resources. With this in mind, this paper proposes to support the configuration and deployment of services with an automated closed control loop. The automation is enabled by the definition of a generic information model, which captures all the information relevant to the management of the services with the same abstractions, describing the runtime elements, service dependencies, and business objectives. On top of that, a technique based on satisfiability is described which automatically diagnoses the state of the managed environment and obtains the required changes for correcting it (e.g., installation, service binding, update, or configuration). The results from a set of case studies extracted from the banking domain are provided to validate the feasibility of this proposa date: 2011-01 date_type: published publisher: IEEE official_url: http://doi.ieeecomputersociety.org/10.1109/TSE.2011.24 full_text_status: public publication: IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING volume: 38 number: 3 pagerange: 520-536 institution: Telecomunicacion department: Ingenieria_Sistemas refereed: TRUE issn: 0098-5589 rights: by-nc-nd citation: Cuadrado Latasa, Félix and Dueñas López, Juan Carlos and Garcia Carmona, Rodrigo (2011).
