Deriving Accurate Operational Profiles for Mass-Marketed Softw

نویسنده

  • Jeffrey Voas
چکیده

Industries such as telecomm and avionics have long enjoyed a perk that most other industries do not enjoy: access to accurate operational profiles. Most other industries are left hypothesizing about how they believe the majority of their users will interact with a particular software package. If these guesses are wrong, reliability predictions based on the guesses will likely be wrong as well. Further, estimates as to when testing should halt and product release occur are also likely to be inaccurate as well as predictions for how well the software will interoperate with other systems that it is integrated with.

Portable and accurate sampling profiling for Java

This article presents a novel framework for the sampling-based profiling of Java programs, which relies on program transformation techniques. We exploit bytecode instruction counting to regularly activate a user-defined profiling agent, which processes the current call stack. This approach has several advantages, such as making the instrumentation entirely portable, generating reproducible prof...

An execution Profiler for Window-oriented Applications

Execution profiles are important in analyzing the performance of computer programs on a given computer system. However, accurate and complete profiles are difficult to arrive at for programs that follow the client–server model of computing, as in the popular X Window System. In X Window applications, considerable computation is invoked at the display server and this computation is an important ...

Spectrophotometric Determination of Corticosteroids and Its Application in Pharmaceutical Formulation

A simple, sensitive and economically viable spectrophotometric method for the determination of corticosteroids (predinsolone {PSL}, dexamethasone {DEX}, prednisone {PS}, betamethasone sodium phosphate {BEP} and hydrocortisone {HYD} has been developed. The method involves the oxidation of corticosteroids by iron (III) and subsequent complexation of iron (II) with potassium hexacynoferrate (III),...

Using Burnett Equations to Derive an Analytical Solution to Pressure-Driven Gas Flow and Heat Transfer in Micro-Couette Flow

The aim of the present study is deriving an analytical solution to incompressible thermal flow in a micro-Couette geometry in the presence of a pressure gradient using Burnett equations with first- and second-order slip boundary conditions. The lower plate of the micro-Couette structure is stationary, whereas the upper plate moves at a constant velocity. Non-dimensional axial velocity and tempe...
