HTN Planning Domain for Deployment of Cloud Applications
This addresses deployment configuration challenges for cloud providers, but it appears incremental as it applies an existing method (HTN planning) to a new domain.
The paper tackled the complex problem of configuring software applications for deployment on cloud infrastructures by presenting a Hierarchical Task Network (HTN) planning domain that models deployment problems in realistic cloud environments, but no concrete results or numbers are provided.
Cloud providers are facing a complex problem in configuring software applications ready for deployment on their infrastructures. Hierarchical Task Network (HTN) planning can provide effective means to solve such deployment problems. We present an HTN planning domain that models deployment problems as found in realistic Cloud environments.
