Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Shadow Cpu Approximation for Modelling Priority Scheduling in Computer Systems A sound performance evaluation methodology is essential to the design and use of computer systems. Among performance evaluation methods, queuing network models have been widely recognized as cost and time effective tools, capable of predicting ability and necessary complements of simulations. Algorithms for efficiently estimating the throughput, response time and other measures of performance have been devised for a broad range of queuing network models. Although this range is very rich and adequate for modelling many realistic features of a computer system, nevertheless it has major limitations. An important one is the inability to model pre-emptive priority scheduling disciplines. Although exact closed-form solutions for such network models are open research problems, several approximation techniques have been proposed. An important one was Sevcik's [Sevc, 77] "shadow CPU" technique, which admits a product form solution and gives performance bounds which are quite tight in many circumstances. In this paper, we extend the shadow CPU model to an optimal approximation of the priority model, within the restrictions of the product form. We propose a computationally efficient sub-optimal approximation technique which gives tighter performance bounds compared to the original shadow CPU technique. We also investigate the limitations of such shadow server-product form techniques for modelling priorities.

On the Shadow Cpu Approximation for Modelling Priority Scheduling in Computer
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a problem in computer science - that of performance evaluation in computer systems - and proposes a sound methodology to address it. The author presents queuing network models as cost-effective tools for performance evaluation. The insights presented in this book enhance our understanding of priority scheduling models and their limitations, using shadow CPU-based techniques. The author provides an optimal approximation to the priority model, which is pessimistic for the performance of the high priority class and admits a product form solution. The book also includes a suboptimal model that is computationally efficient and outperforms the original shadow CPU technique. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
