Dynamic resource management for mobile services (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ragusa, C., Liotta, A., & Pavlou, G. (2003). Dynamic resource management for mobile services. In Mobile Agents for Telecommunication Applications: 5th International Workshop, MATA 2003, Marrakech, Morocco, October 8-10, 2003. Proceedings (156-169). https

In this paper we propose a dynamic resource management system addressing the key requirements of mobile services – i.e. services realized as Mobile Agents (MAs). MAs are exploited here in different ways. First, to realize adaptable, configurable, con... Read More about Dynamic resource management for mobile services.

Mobile Agent-Based Performance Management for the Virtual Home Environment (2003)
Journal Article
Bohoris, C., Pavlou, G., & Liotta, A. (2003). Mobile Agent-Based Performance Management for the Virtual Home Environment. Journal of Network and Systems Management, 11(2), 133-149. https://doi.org/10.1023/A%3A1023714931278

Virtual Home Environment (VHE) encompasses the deployment and management of adaptable services that retain any personalized service aspects, irrespective of terminal, network' and geographic location. We assert that the dynamic nature of the VHE requ... Read More about Mobile Agent-Based Performance Management for the Virtual Home Environment.

Applying a policy-based framework to manage quality of service requirements in the virtual home environment (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Yew, A., Liotta, A., & Pavlou, G. (2002). Applying a policy-based framework to manage quality of service requirements in the virtual home environment. In 2002 IEEE International Conference on Communications. Conference Proceedings. ICC 2002 (Cat. No.02CH

The deployment of the virtual home environment (VHE) concept in 3G mobile systems in the near future will place many demands on managing a user's personalised service environment. Key to the VHE concept is the performance of such services, resulting... Read More about Applying a policy-based framework to manage quality of service requirements in the virtual home environment.

Exploiting agent mobility for large-scale network monitoring (2002)
Journal Article
Liotta, A., Pavlou, G., & Knight, G. (2002). Exploiting agent mobility for large-scale network monitoring. IEEE Network, 16(3), 7-15. https://doi.org/10.1109/MNET.2002.1002994

As networks become pervasive, the importance of efficient information gathering for purposes such as monitoring, fault diagnosis, and performance evaluation increases. Distributed monitoring systems based on either management protocols such as SNMP o... Read More about Exploiting agent mobility for large-scale network monitoring.

Active distributed monitoring for dynamic large-scale networks (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Liotta, A., Pavlou, G., & Knight, G. (2001). Active distributed monitoring for dynamic large-scale networks. In ICC 2001. IEEE International Conference on Communications. Conference Record (Cat. No.01CH37240) (1544-1550). https://doi.org/10.1109/ICC.2001

Networks offering services of high availability and quality need to be carefully monitored. Their increasing size and complexity stresses the ability of currently used static centralized systems. Decentralized approaches are possible and a key issue... Read More about Active distributed monitoring for dynamic large-scale networks.

CMIS/P++: Extensions to CMIS/P for increased expressiveness and efficiency in the manipulation of management information (1998)
Journal Article
Pavlou, G., Liotta, A., Abbi, P., & Ceri, S. (1998). CMIS/P++: Extensions to CMIS/P for increased expressiveness and efficiency in the manipulation of management information. IEEE Network, 12(5), 10-18. https://doi.org/10.1109/65.730747

CMIS/P is the OSI systems management service and protocol used as the base technology for the telecommunications management network. It is a generic object oriented protocol that provides multiple object access capabilities to managed object clusters...
