Task Allocation and Execution Model Sample Clauses

Task Allocation and Execution Model. ‌ Though organisational adaptation may be applied in any number of contexts, for the sake of simplicity and understanding we focus on only one scenario in the domain of eScience. The eScience scenario described in Section 1.3 gives a single concrete instance of distributed entities, collaboratively completing tasks. In this section, key aspects are extracted from this scenario in order to develop a formal model that will be used as the base for subsequent work. We refer to this as our task allocation and execution model. This model includes similar characteristics to those introduced by Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxxx [1], and Kota et al. [67], which are both concerned with competing tasks of some form through agent collaboration. Importantly, this provides some assurance that our model is not idiosyncratic but is instead one that applies well to a broad range of scenarios and ties directly to other work. In the eScience scenario, different computational entities are required to undertake var- ious tasks (such as dsu1 storing data for pa’s task), and to pass these tasks to others if the entities themselves cannot execute them (such as dsu1 passing the remainder of pa’s task to sc1, because it cannot process the data itself). The key task in this scenario is to analyse data. In this sense, to complete a task, some requirements must be satisfied, where a requirement amounts to a specification of a service, and the amount of work the service is required to perform. Tasks can be decomposed according to these re- quirements, potentially with ordering constraints: for example, to analyse data it must first be stored and then processed. Therefore, completing a task involves locating other entities that offer instances of these required services, in the some defined order. In what follows the key elements from the problem space are formally specified. We begin by specifying the naming conventions used throughout this model. We then describe services, and how tasks are built up from the need for such services. Next, we discuss a simple mechanism to model the correlation between a set of requirements in a single task. Finally, we specify the structure of each device in our scenario, which we represent as agents.
