Proactive Management of Computer Networks Using Artificial Intelligence Agents and Techniques

This work was developed in the area of Computer Network Management. The work is intended to establish a strategy for the implementation of proactive management in the available management environment, i.e. the National Supercomputing Center, for the management of networks associated with the use of agents. The work was motivated by a need to explore the use of agents to identify symptoms of proactive management problems which might occur in networks, and especially to recognize a problem using artificial intelligence techniques and take reactive measures to solve it, configuring a proactive management application for the prevention of problems in computer networks.
