Abstract
A system, method, and information processing system manage a network. At least one contract including one or more components is received at a network that uses a component based architecture. A first operation (422) in the set of operations associated with the contract (114) is mapped to a policy rule event (424) associated with at least one policy rule (116). A second operation (426) in the set of operations associated with the contract (114) is mapped to at least one policy rule condition (428) associated with the policy rule (116). A third operation (430) in the set of operations associated with the contract (116) is mapped to a policy rule action (432) associated with the policy rule (116). A fourth operation (440) in the set of operations associated with the contract (116) is mapped to a policy rule condition (442) associated with the other policy rule (420).
