Abstract
: Fault management is a challenging research topic, and the ultimate goal -- automation -- is still far away. We believe that important progress can be made by studying management from a software engineering perspective, and by integrating functionality into applications to make them more manageable. In this article, we discuss methods and functionality for the detection, diagnosis and repair of faults at run-time. We strive for effective techniques with potential for reuse and automation. We intentionally take an abstract, high-level view, stepping back from implementation issues. Our goal is to establish the ingredients of a higher-level management interface that enable less qualified operators or even automatic applications to carry out fault management tasks autonomously. 1. Introduction Current fault management solutions have two typical features: . They are generally added a-posteriori to existing applications. This means that the applications are not designed for being managed...
