Batch computing services have the characteristics of providing services required by users on demand. Furthermore, failure factors such as resource constraints and scheduling can lead to service violations. The accountability mechanism is essential to be established, which integrates analysis, Network generation, Determination, and Tracing. There are functional modules that have done some research on the parts of the accountability mechanism. However, in order to integrate them into the accountability mechanism, the accountability framework is essential for batch computing services. Therefore, this article aims to present a survey of functional modules of accountability mechanism, presenting and comparing main features described in the literature and challenges of integrating the accountability framework. At the end of this work, we provide suggestions for future research directions.
Failure correlation is a necessary condition for source trace and violations determination in accountability of cloud services. This paper surveys the failure correlation. Most studies were involved in the correlation between services violation and failure factors only. However, an understanding of the correlation between the factors, the integrality of the factors is ambiguous and even few involve the correlation patterns of specific violations. Above all, the taxonomy of the failure factors, the methods of structure representation and analysis, some problems of recent research and suggestions are proposed in our paper.
