Objective
In the majority of industry sectors, the systems supporting applications distributed at international level through Wide Area Networks increase in both quantity and quality. Users are very sensitive to get the expected services and the associated performances such as delay, throughput, synchronisation, scalability, availability, reliability and security. This is a key criteria for the adoption and deployment of such systems. The distributed systems supervision has a major role in the user satisfaction. The existing solution mainly consists in an aggregation of independent modules that partially meet requirements without overall optimisation. Taking into account these limitations, the GeneSyS project proposes to adopt a global approach and aims at defining a standardised solution unifying the supervision of applications and networks with a permanent concern of optimisation of the performances and of simplicity of use.
OBJECTIVES
To enhance distributed systems with a generic and standardised supervision solution and nurture its practical implementation and multi-sector exploitation as a key enabler for the competitiveness of European research and industry.The top-level objectives of the GeneSyS project are:1. To specify and develop an open, generic, modular and comprehensive supervision concept,2. To integrate and validate this supervision structure within various industrial contexts,3. To achieve the adoption of the GeneSyS concepts by all stakeholders (internal and external to the consortium), and to ensure that the vision of the proposed generic structure will become a new emerging standard.
DESCRIPTION OF WORK
The major workpackages in the GeneSyS project are:
1. The state-of-the-art, the definition of the User requirements, the determination of the methodology to be applied in, the scope of the validation scenarios derived from existing applications, and the evaluation objectives which will qualify and quantify as far as possible the GeneSyS solution benefits;
2. The definition of the GeneSyS supervision structure and services, the production of the GeneSyS architecture composed of the middleware and several plugins, the development and the test of the prototype software for validation purpose. The prototype will implement the most significant services from the User requirements, the minimum will be what the performance of the validation scenarios requires;
3. The integration of the GeneSyS components, their deployment through international networks and the validation including an evaluation activity. The contexts for the validation are: space industry (with distributed simulations and distributed engineering needs) and e-business (with distributed monitoring of n-tier applications);
4. The broadcasting of the project results, to ensure a wide dissemination of the aims & outcomes of the GeneSyS project across multi-sector industrial and research communities. The open source initiative will ensure a large audience within these communities. The project will catalyse the process in order to bring the GeneSyS concept to a ""de facto"" widely used standard;
5. The preparation of the internal exploitation plans by all partners and externally through a business plan. These exploitation activities of the GeneSyS results will be lead on the basis of an industrial utilisation of the GeneSyS package.6. The project management to ensure that the project is fully co-ordinate in a clear, unambiguous and mutually acceptable manner, and that the project achieves its objectives within cost and time constraints.
