Abstract
An embodiment of the invention provides a technique that extends relevance-based computation to include computation based on information accessed from or exchanged with other agents. Mechanisms are provided by which an agent accesses or exchanges information between or among other agents and may include one or more of: central bulletin board, broadcast, direct request—pull, direct request—push, and server-routed. Architectural models of distributed decision making to facilitate a distributed and policy-based management of IT infrastructure are provided.
