Abstract
Methods, apparatus, and systems are provided for distributed hypothesis testing in autonomic processing machines. Evidence about a network resource is gathered or contributed to and associated with a hypothesis about the network resource. The evidence is processed to determine whether a decision can be made with respect to activities or problems associated with the network resource. The hypothesis, the evidence, and the contributed evidence are propagated over a network to other network nodes or participants.
