Title
Sharing performance measurement events across domains
Abstract
Network management activities, such as fault analysis and configuration management, are eventually related to changes in network measurements. Some measurement event might be either a trigger or objective of a management activity. We argue that sharing the semantics of performance data across networks provides a basis for more advanced automation. This paper presents an ontology-based system for sharing information about network measurements across network domains. The represented information contains correlations and human-defined mappings between network measurements and the system is based on semantic reasoning that identifies dependencies which arise by combining local and shared information. We demonstrate the usage of the system in a Long Term Evolution (LTE) network domain. Our experiments from an LTE simulator and LTE test network show that a combination of correlations, human-defined mappings, and ontological reasoning produces useful cross-domain information that can be accessed with ontology queries.
