Computer Systems Performance Engineering in Trondheim: Origins and Development, 1970-1995

نویسنده

  • Peter H. Hughes
چکیده

Developments covered by this review include early experimental work on Univac mainframes, a contribution to early debate regarding the application of queue-network analysis, the development of bespoke benchmarking techniques, one of the first interactive load generators, and modeling tools for system sizing and for simulation. We show how addressing problems that arose from practical needs has benefited both university teaching, and industrial practice. The period covers the transition of performance evaluation as a set of ad hoc modeling and measurement techniques to performance engineering, which aspires to be an integral part of systems design and development. Cross-fertilization and collaboration with developments internationally form an important part of the activities reported.

USING DISTRIBUTION OF DATA TO ENHANCE PERFORMANCE OF FUZZY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEMS

This paper considers the automatic design of fuzzy rule-basedclassification systems based on labeled data. The classification performance andinterpretability are of major importance in these systems. In this paper, weutilize the distribution of training patterns in decision subspace of each fuzzyrule to improve its initially assigned certainty grade (i.e. rule weight). Ourapproach uses a punish...
