Software aging is caused by resource exhaustion and can lead to progressive performance degradation or result in a crash. We develop experiments that simulate an on-line bookstore application, using the standard configuration of TPC-W benchmark. We study application failures due to memory leaks, using the accelerated life testing (ALT). ALT significantly reduces the time needed to estimate the time to failure at normal level. We then select the Weibull time to failure distribution at normal level, to be used in a semi-Markov model so as to optimize the software rejuvenation trigger interval. Then we derive the optimal rejuvenation schedule interval by fixed point iteration and by an alternative non-parametric estimation algorithm. Finally, we develop a simulation model using importance sampling (IS) to cross validate the ALT experimental results and the semi-Markov model, and also we apply the non-parametric method to cross validate the optimized trigger intervals by comparing the availabilities obtained from the semi-Markov model and those from IS simulation using the non-parametric method. 相似文献

Software reusability is widely believed to be a key to help overcome the ongoing software crisis by improving software productivity and quality. New computer technology and the demands of an advancing society require new and more complicated software. It is unrealistic to expect that every software system can be developed solely reusing existing software; however, software reusability has proven to be a way of enhancing software productivity and quality in different organizations. It is also believed that reuse of code segments alone does not significantly reduce software development effort.By creating reuse support information while software is being developed (when the software is best known to software developers), the reuse effort for both software development and maintenance can be potentially reduced.In this paper, five types of RSI are presented: Semantic Web, Horizontal Web, Vertical Web, Syntactic Web, and Alternative Web. We collectively call these five webs a Quintet Web. The Semantic Web enables software developers to locate a software segment. The Horizontal Web provides a means to reuse a block of soflware along with other types of software from other phases of a development process. The inter-phase integration of software can be performed through this Web. The Vertical Web identifies the vertical relationship of a software block to its operational environment. The Syntactic Web locates all statements in which a variable is used. The Alternative Web provides alternative software blocks that perform an identical operation.A prototype of the Quintet Web is presented. 相似文献

There is a need for better software sizing models. Several existing models, including Albrecht's Function Point Analysis and DeMarco's system BANG, are examined as candidate models, and some of their deficiencies are noted. An architecture for a sizing model for applications systems is presented, its major components are identified, and their general functions described. 相似文献

In this paper we describe several methods for detecting the need for software rejuvenation in mission critical systems that are subjected to worm infection, and introduce new software rejuvenation algorithms. We evaluate these algorithms’ effectiveness using both simulation studies and analytic modeling, by assessing the probability of mission success. The system under study emulates a Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) of processing nodes. Our analysis determined that some of our rejuvenation algorithms are quite effective in maintaining a high probability of mission success while the system is under explicit attack by a worm infection. 相似文献

In this paper a cost model for software conversion projects is developed. The model is based upon three variable parameters: L (thousands of lines of source code), N (the total number of programs being converted) and E (the conversion software inefficiency). All other parameters included in the model are constant coefficients which can vary from one type of conversion to another. An analysis of the resulting model yields four major conclusions: (1) There is an optimum investment that should be made in conversion software for each conversion project. (2) As the total number of lines to be converted increases, it is cost-effective to increase the investment in conversion software. (3) If conversion software is reused for a second project, it is worthwhile to invest additional effort (and/or funds) in upgrading the software. (4) As the size of the conversion increases the cost per line decreases to a lower limit. 相似文献

A graph model of software evolution is presented. The author seeks to formalize the objects and activities involved in software evolution in sufficient detail to enable automatic assistance for maintaining the consistency and integrity of an evolving software system. This includes automated support for propagating the consequences of a change to a software system. The evolution of large and complex software systems receives particular attention 相似文献

A model for software product quality is defined, it has been formulated by associating a set of quality-carrying properties with each of the structural forms that are used to define the statements and statement components of a programming language. These quality-carrying properties are in turn linked to the high-level quality attributes of the International Standard for Software Product Evaluation ISO-9126. The model supports building quality into software, definition of language-specific coding standards, systematically classifying quality defects, and the development of automated code auditors for detecting defects in software 相似文献

In other industries, the idea of build corporate culture by establishing a common level of “best practice” is widely known and used. The architecture concept directly supports this goal for our industry and can help us improve problem areas dominated by organizational and social issues, such as health care organizations, educational systems, and so on. Our proposed reference model for architecture specification and development is organized around a set of aspects that structure concepts and rules; these, in turn, specify a conceptual architecture. We have added principles and guidelines to the concepts and rules to give a more complete picture of the architecture and to provide a place to store and communicate successfully applied design patterns and other knowledge related to the architecture. Adding architectural elements is a step toward a more constructive type of architecture representation. Our current research is focused on further refining these concepts and developing a formal specification of the architecture reference model. We are continuing to test our ideas in case studies, such as applying our model to the OSCA architecture and the application machine concept. We are also developing a prototype architecture editor, and we are testing different tools to learn more about integrating them into a real infrastructure and to learn what typical services an infrastructure must provide 相似文献

卫星被越来越广泛地应用到军事侦察、资源勘探、气象预报、电视转播、通讯等重要领域,所以卫星地面站系统比普通的软件系统对安全性、可靠性、抗毁性、错误检测和恢复等有更高的要求。卫星系统高度的实时性要求卫星地面站软件系统是不允许失效的。但是软件系统存在软件老化现象,导致软件失效,为了对抗软件老化,采用了一种针对卫星地面站软件系统抗衰的微重启策略,可缩短应用系统的平均恢复时间(MTTR),提高系统的可靠性,可以为卫星测轨和定轨提供精确的原始卫星观测数据,对改善卫星测轨和定轨的精度具有重要的现实意义和应用价值。 相似文献

An extensible representation for object-oriented programs, the Object-oriented Program Dependence Graph (OPDG), is presented. The representation is divided into three layers: a first layer that presents the class inheritance structure, a second layer that combines a traditional control dependence subgraph and a data dependence subgraph with objects, and a third layer that presents the dynamic, runtime aspects of an object-oriented program as an Object Dependence Subgraph. The representation is modular allowing specific tools to only use the portion required for the tool's operation. The complete representation provides information sufficient for most program analysis techniques including data flow analysis, reverse engineering, interactive debuggers and other tools. 相似文献

Many decision-makers in industry, government and academia routinely make decisions whose outcome depends on the evolution of software technology trends. Even though the stakes of these decisions are usually very high, decision makers routinely depend on expert opinions and qualitative assessments to model the evolution of software technology; both of these sources of decision-making information are subjective, are based on opinions rather than facts, and are prone to error. In this paper, we report on our ongoing work to build quantitative models of the evolution of software technology trends. In particular, we discuss how we took specific evolutionary models and merged them into a single (general-purpose) model. The original specific models are derived empirically using statistical methods on trend data we had collected over several years, and have been validated individually; in this paper we further validate the generic (general-purpose) model. 相似文献

A process model for component-oriented software engineering 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The investigation of reuse has a long history, eventually maturing into the "build by integration" paradigm. Meanwhile, component technologies also improved along with engineering practices. What is missing is a methodology that uses components within such a paradigm, thus bridging the gap. The authors propose a model devoted to complete component orientation, rather than modifying object-oriented approaches to accommodate components. They investigate component-based technologies to address new needs and, consequently, to integrate adequate practices toward a consistent process model. 相似文献

A bottom-up approach to software size estimation is described. It first identifies factors affecting software size, thus obtaining size explanation equations, and then seeks suitable predictors based on those explanation factors which can be used for size estimation. The approach, or model, is bottom-up in that it sizes individual software components or modules first, and then obtains subsystem and system sizes by summing component sizes. Since components may have different purposes and characteristics, the model allows for the partitioning of system components into several different types, each component type having different size explanation and estimation equations. The partitioning is not fixed, but depends on the particular software development technology. The model is applied to several different software systems, including both business applications and systems programs 相似文献

This paper presents a comprehensive software-based technique that is capable of detecting soft errors in embedded systems. Soft errors can be categorized into Control Flow Errors (CFEs) and data errors. The CFEs change the flow of the program erroneously and data errors also change the results. In this paper, a new comprehensive method is presented to detect both (based on combination of authors’ previous works). In order to evaluate the proposed method, a new factor is defined that considers three main parameters simultaneously; namely fault coverage, memory overhead, and performance overhead. Since these parameters are very important in safety critical applications, they should be improved concurrently. The experimental results on SPEC2000 benchmarks show that the Evaluation Factor of the proposed method is 50% better than the Relationship Signatures for Control Flow Checking with Data Validation (RSCFCDV) methods, which are suggested in the literature. 相似文献

A comprehensive quality model for service-oriented systems 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In a service-oriented system, a quality (or Quality of Service) model is used (i) by service requesters to specify the expected
quality levels of service delivery; (ii) by service providers to advertise quality levels that their services achieve; and
(iii) by service composers when selecting among alternative services those that are to participate in a service composition.
Expressive quality models are needed to let requesters specify quality expectations, providers advertise service qualities,
and composers finely compare alternative services. Having observed many similarities between various quality models proposed
in the literature, we review these and integrate them into a single quality model, called QVDP. We highlight the need for
integration of priority and dependency information within any quality model for services and propose precise submodels for
doing so. Our intention is for the proposed model to serve as a reference point for further developments in quality models
for service-oriented systems. To this aim, we extend the part of the UML metamodel specialized for Quality of Service with
QVDP concepts unavailable in UML.
