This paper studies the input design problem for system identification where time domain constraints have to be considered. A finite Markov chain is used to model the input of the s...
Modern distributed systems that have to avoid performance degradation and system overload require several runtime management decisions for load balancing and load sharing, overloa...
Abstract. We present a detailed workload characterization of a multi-tiered system that hosts an e-commerce site. Using the TPC-W workload and via experimental measurements, we ill...
Recently-developed techniques have improved the performance of production systems several times over. However, these techniques are not yet adequate for continuous problem solving...
: Development of distributed systems is complicated by the absence of reliable global timing, concurrency, and nondeterminism. To deal with these obstacles log files are produced b...
