Stochastic Petri Nets and Their Applications to Performance Analysis of Computer Networks

چکیده
Continuous-time Markov chains are used extensively to analyze the performance of various computer networks. However, constructing and solving continuous-time Markov chain is a tedious and error-prone procedure, especially when the studied systems are complex. Stochastic Petri nets and the corresponding software packages provide automated generation and solution to continuous-time Markov chains. This paper gives an overview of stochastic Petri nets. Two examples in ATM networks are presented and studied to illustrate how to use stochastic Petri nets for performance analysis of computer networks.

Modeling and Performance Evaluation of Energy Consumption in S-MAC Protocol Using Generalized Stochastic Petri Nets
One of the features of wireless sensor networks is that the nodes in this network have limited power sources. Therefore, assessment of energy consumption in these networks is very important. What has been common practice has been the use of traditional simulators to evaluate the energy consumption of the nodes in these networks. Simulators often have problems such as fluctuating output values i...
متن کاملMapping CRC Card into Stochastic Petri Net for Analyzing and Evaluating Quality Parameter of Security (TECHNICAL NOTE)
CRC cards are unconventional method for identifying and describing classes, behavior and its responsibilities and collaborators of class. Representation of three categories of class, responsibilities and collaborators can give proper image of scenario. These cards are effective method for analyzing scenarios. With all positive features of CRC cards, of weaknesses of these cards are failure to s...
