Dependable LQNS: A Performability Modeling Tool for Layered Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dependable LQNS is a software tool for modeling and evaluating performability of fault-tolerant layered distributed applications that use a separate architecture for failure detection and reconfiguration. It takes into account the effects of management architecture, application software architecture, failure of management and application components in the dependability computation. It uses a combination of minpath algorithms, AND-OR graphs, noncoherent fault trees and Layered Queueing modeling in the analysis.

Layered Dependability Modeling of an Air Traffic Control System
Quality attributes, such as performance and dependability of a software-intensive system are constrained by its software architecture. The combined performance and dependability (called performability) effects of an architecture can be evaluated by constructing a performability model that considers the failure/repair behavior and performance attributes of its components, interactions among the ...
متن کاملPerformability Modeling for Multi-layered Service Systems
Distributed software is usually structured in layers, with some kind of operational control or user interface tasks as the topmost layer, making requests to various layers of servers. Client Server systems and ODP (Open Distributed Processing) systems such as DCE, ANSA and CORBA are structured this way, as are distributed transaction processing systems. Performance and dependability are the two...
متن کاملA Multiprocessor System with Non-Preemptive Earliest-Deadline-First Scheduling Policy: A Performability Study
This paper introduces an analytical method for approximating the performability of a firm realtime system modeled by a multi-server queue. The service discipline in the queue is earliestdeadline- first (EDF), which is an optimal scheduling algorithm. Real-time jobs with exponentially distributed relative deadlines arrive according to a Poisson process. All jobs have deadlines until the end of s...
متن کاملEfficient non-anonymus composition operator for modeling complex dependable systems
A new model composer is proposed to automatically generate non-anonymous model replicas in the context of performability and dependability evaluation. It is a state-sharing composer that extends the standard anonymous replication composer in order to share the state of a replica among a set of other specific replicas or among the replica and another external model. This new composition operator...
متن کاملModel-driven Generative Techniques for Scalable Performabality Analysis of Distributed Systems∗
The ever increasing societal demand for the timely availability of newer and feature-rich but highly dependable network-centric applications imposes the need for these applications to be constructed by the composition, assembly and deployment of off-the-shelf infrastructure and domain-specific services building blocks. Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is an emerging paradigm to build applica...
