ABSTRACT:
A self-adaptive resource management method and a corresponding system are proposed. In the solution of the invention, an authority (105) publishes multiple rules into a corresponding repository (115). Each rule defines a desired target configuration for a category of subjects (110). Some of the rules can be conditioned to an authorization for their application on the subjects (by means of an optional enabling code). Whenever a generic subject tries to apply a conditioned rule, a test is made to verify whether the application of the rule has been authorized for the subject; if not, the subject is considered not compliant with the rule for a lack of authorization. A supervisor (135) authorizes each enabling code in an asynchronous way (with respect to the application of the corresponding rules); for example, the supervisor can authorize the enabling code for specific subjects, for a group of subjects (defined either statically by a list of subjects or dynamically by their characteristics), or for all the subjects. In this way, the application of the rules on the different subjects can be controlled centrally (for example, during a transition from a resource management system based on the enforcement model) without impairing the self-adaptive model.
