Abstract
The paper discusses the workflows control scheme in the distributed information system which is economical in terms of the amount of information provided to the remote system administrator or security officer.
The proposed scheme allows automation of control, is based on real experience of the system administrator, and allows implementing logic of determination, classification, and approximating localization of anomalies. The system administrator receives information about the operation of the distributed information system through the communication channels. In operation, it is assumed that the sources of messages for the system administrator are sensors. Sensors are entities capable of recognizing information received at the input of sensor-related transformation of information, that is, if the transformation receives information at the input, then the sensor recognizes the fact and time of transmitting the input information to the first transformation of the block in which it is located within the framework of the information technology being implemented. The scheme is based on the calculation and analysis of the moments when the sensor "sees" the transfer of data to the transformation input in a particular instance of information technology. The characteristics of the approach to workflows monitoring are estimations of systematic process delays and analysis of outages using "parallel" sensors. The constructed scheme allows one to dynamically detail the control to clarify the approximate location of the anomaly.
