A Formalization of the Attribute Mapping Problem

Shriver, Elizabeth

HPL-1999-127

Keyword(s): attribute-based storage management; formalization

Abstract: An attribute-managed solver makes assignments of workload units to devices based on attributes specifications that describe the workload units and the devices. This paper presents the sets of attributes that model workloads and devices. It also discusses the necessary formalization of an attribute- managed solver in terms of objective functions and constraints expressions. These formalizations enable progress toward an implementation of an attributed- managed storage system.
