and web-based architectures have led to the continuous need for
state-of-the-art performance evaluation mechanisms. The advancements in
enabling technologies for the Tactile Internet have led to an ever more push
towards advanced paradigms for communication performance evaluation. Given that
most architectures and frameworks, such
as the Tactile Internet, are becoming increasingly large and complex to manage
in a centralized manner, numerous challenges need to be addressed and resolved
before such systems become available for use on a large scale level. The
multi-dimensional data incorporated in such complex systems, in addition to the
enforced high-reliability constraints, add more challenges to the design of
these systems. </span><span lang="EN-CA">Quantitative analysis can be very
difficult and might be intractable because of the state space explosion. New
methods and tools have recently emerged for these kinds of complex systems,
especially ones that rely on the use of distributed and intelligent solutions.
The incorporation of machine learning has led to not only an increase in system
accuracy but also will speed up the process of performance evaluation.</span></font></p>
