International Journal of Communication Networks and Distributed Systems (IJCNDS), Vol. 30, No. 4, 2024

Abstract: Large-scale distributed system management is an emerging task for all modern networked organisations. In this direction, corporate management systems are usually organised into domains, which specify the borders for policy applicability. Due to the complexity of such a task, techniques must be developed for resolving conflicts and optimising the management structures and performance. In this paper, after brief providing an overview of the related topics on policy-based system management, we propose mechanisms for consistency and minimisation of policy sets, and finally for optimisation in management structures adopting parallel processing techniques.
