  1. Combining Computer Science and Control techniques to address complex systems designAlbert Benveniste, IRISA Visiting Committee. March 2004

  2. Design, management, and control, of large distributed infrastructures • Large transportation systems (air traffic control) • Military systems • Telecoms & services: rapid deployment and reconfiguration of new management domains on the top of several existing domains; X-domain management; P2P • Flourishing buzzwords: cooperative control, autonomic computing,… Zooming on mathematical algorithms for the observation and control of such infrastructures

  3. Key fundamental concepts Control Computer science • dynamical systems • models are approximations • optimization & maths • learning & feedback • composition, architecture • model engineering • centralized vs. distributed • dynamicity & autonomy • algorithms for huge, self-evolving, distributed architectures • self-diagnosis, -provisioning, -healing for networks and services

  4. A joint research with Alcatel and France-Telecom Eric Fabre – Bayesian networks, info theory, concurrency Stefan Haar – concurrency theory Claude Jard – formal methods, SW engineering, concurrency Focusing on distributed fault management in networks and services

  5. the diagnosis problem : distributed observation of the hidden state of a dynamical system • Fault propagation – causality • Alarm interleaving – concurrency • Distributed processing diagnoser diagnoser supervision telecommunications network

  6. the diagnosis problem: distributed observation of the hidden state of a dynamical system • Fault propagation – causality • Alarm interleaving – concurrency • Distributed processing diagnoser diagnoser supervision telecommunications network

  7. model-based approach : methodology Montrouge • Structural model (ITU-T…) • physical network topology • network elements • connections model Behavioral model SDH Ring

  8. A typical fault propagation scenario Aubervilliers Montrouge St Ouen Gentilly AU-AIS AU-AIS disabled AU-AIS AU-AIS AU-AIS disabled AU-AIS MS-AIS MS-AIS TF disabled LOS disabled LOS TF

  9. MPLS and SDH domains - impact analysis LSP1.1 C2 LSP1.2 root cause C 2 1 C1 LSP1 3 D LSP2 impacted services B 1 2 LSP2.1 LSP3 4 3 A 2 LSP2.2 3 B3 1 LSP3.1 A1 LSP3.2 B1 A2 B2 MPLS Domain C MPLS Domain B MPLS Domain A

  10. Distributed state inference from alarm observation HOW DO WE GET THE MODEL? Montrouge • asynchronous network of automata • distributed supervisors and sensors • local diagnosis: distributed belief propagation SDH Ring

  11. Self-modeling, and self-deployment of the algorithm Automatic behavioral model generation Behavior of generic NE’s Automatic algorithm generation & deployment Capturing architecture (network discovery) Standards SDH, WDM, OTN, GMPLS

  12. Summary or requirements • Concurrent models: • Local states • Local time – partially ordered by causality • Distributed algorithms robust to asynchronous communications • Self-modeling • Dynamic reconfiguration

  13. Switching to the maths for such problems…
