For garbage-collected applications, dynamically-allocated objects are contained in a heap. Programmer productivity improves significantly if there is a garbage collector to autom...
In this paper we provide a general method to derive productform solutions for stochastic models. We take inspiration from the Reversed Compound Agent Theorem [14] and we provide a...
Performance non-determinism in computer systems complicates evaluation, use, and even development of these systems. In performance evaluation via benchmarking and simulation, nond...
We propose a model-based methodology to size and plan enterprise applications under Service Level Agreements (SLAs). Our approach is illustrated using a real-world Enterprise Reso...
Nowadays the 2-Phase-Locking (2PL) concurrency control algorithm still plays a core rule in the construction of transactional systems (e.g. database systems and transactional memo...
