Behavioural model of component-Based Grid Environments

  • Chapter

Abstract

In component-based Grid environments, we analyse the problem of formal specification of their behaviour by introducing an automata-based model. We show how to construct this new framework from the analysis of states of components and how to apply it to a reconfiguration scenario in a dynamic distributed system environment. We aim at building a framework for future integration of these developments in a software tool for runtime automated specification and verifi-cation, ensuring a reliable dynamically reconfigurable component model.
