This work presents a proposal to diagnose distributed
systems utilizing model-based diagnosis using distributed
databases. In order to improve aspects as versatility, persistence,
easy composition and efficiency in the diagnosis
process we use an Object Relational Constraint Database
(ORCDB). Thereby we define a distributed architecture to
store the behaviour of components as constraints in a relational
database to diagnose a distributed system. This
work proposes an algorithm to detect which components fail
when their information is distributed in several databases,
and all the information is not available in a global way. It
is also offered a proposal to define, in execution time, the
allocation of the sensors in a distributed system.Ministerio de Ciencia y Tecnología DPI2003-07146-C02-0
