متن کاملA scalable monitoring architecture for managing distributed multimedia systems
Monitoring is an essential process to observe and improve the reliability and the performance of large-scale distributed multimedia (LDM) systems. Monitoring events generated by LDM systems is necessary for observing the run-time behavior of LDM systems and providing status information required for managing such applications. However, correlated events are generated concurrently and could be di...
متن کاملA Scalable Monitoring Architecture for Managing Large-scale Distributed Multimedia Systems1
Monitoring is an essential process to observe and improve the reliability and the performance of large-scale distributed multimedia (LDM) systems. In an LDM environment, a large number of events is generated by the system components during its execution or interaction with external objects (e.g. users or processes). Monitoring such events is necessary for observing the run-time behavior of LDM ...
