Abstract
In one embodiment, the present invention is a method for reward-based learning of improved systems management policies. One embodiment of the inventive method involves obtaining a decision-making entity and a reward mechanism. The decision-making entity manages a plurality of application environments supported by a data processing system, where each application environment operates on data input to the data processing system. The reward mechanism generates numerical measures of value responsive to actions performed in states of the application environments. The decision-making entity and the reward mechanism are applied to the application environments, and results achieved through this application are processed in accordance with reward-based learning to derive a policy. The reward mechanism and the policy are then applied to the application environments, and the results of this application are processed in accordance with reward-based learning to derive a new policy.
