Self-adaption deployment of performance monitoring agent in distributed networks
分布式网络性能监测代理自适应部署研究

One of the critical problems in distributed network performance monitoring is that how to place proper number of monitoring agents in proper locations in a managed network can improve monitoring efficiency,that is,decrease monitoring traffic and response time.Our algorithm was triggered when network topology changed,or nodes and links failures occurred.By adjusting some agents' deployment,it could draw the whole monitoring system back to proximate optimization state.Simulation shows that this algorithm can add flexibility and scalability to the proposed monitoring system.
