Performance Evaluation of Content Distribution Network Architectures through Agent-Based Modeling and Simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Agent-Based Modeling and Simulation (ABMS) has emerged as a new and powerful technology for the analysis of natural and artificial complex systems. In this paper ABMS is exploited for the modeling and performance evaluation of Conventional, Clustered and Cooperative Content Distribution Network (CDN) architectures. Clustered and Cooperative architectures differ from Conventional architectures as surrogate servers can loosely (in the Cooperative architectures) or tightly (in the Clustered architectures) cooperate to provide the requested contents to users. The results obtained from the simulation phase show that the Clustered architectures allow for significant improvements of the main CDN performance indices (average user perceived latency, cache hit ratio, and CDN utility) with respect to Conventional and Cooperative architectures. Keywords-component; Content Delivery Networks, Surrogate Clustering, Agent-based Modeling and Simulation, Performance Evaluation.

agent-based modeling is an emerging computational technique that makes it possible to simulate complex economic systems, including the banking network, with a bottom-up approach. In this paper, the country's banking network is simulated with an intelligent multi-agent modeling model and indicates that these agents behave based on the adaptive learning. This modeling has been done with the aim o...
متن کاملReliability and Performance Evaluation of Fault-aware Routing Methods for Network-on-Chip Architectures (RESEARCH NOTE)
Nowadays, faults and failures are increasing especially in complex systems such as Network-on-Chip (NoC) based Systems-on-a-Chip due to the increasing susceptibility and decreasing feature sizes. On the other hand, fault-tolerant routing algorithms have an evident effect on tolerating permanent faults and improving the reliability of a Network-on-Chip based system. This paper presents reliabili...

Distribution of contact pressure between the bipolar plate and gas diffusion layer considerably affect the performance of proton exchange membrane fuel cell. In this regard, an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is developed to predict the contact pressure distribution on the gas diffusion layer due to dimensional errors of the bipolar plate ribs in a proton exchange membrane fuel ce...
