Today, many formal analysis tools are not only used to provide certainty but are also used to debug software systems – a role that has traditional been reserved for testing tool...
Abstract. The performance of multi-tier systems is known to be significantly degraded by workloads that place bursty service demands on system resources. Burstiness can cause queu...
