The Double Edge Sword Based Distributed Executor Service

Scalability is one of the most important quality attribute of software-intensive systems, because it maintains an effective performance parallel to the large fluctuating and sometimes unpredictable workload. In order to achieve scalability, thread pool system (TPS) (which is also known as executor service) has been used extensively as a middleware service in software-intensive systems. TPS optimization is a challenging problem that determines the optimal size of thread pool dynamically on runtime. In case of distributed-TPS (DTPS), another issue is the load balancing b/w available set of TPSs running at backend servers. Existing DTPSs are overloaded either due to an inappropriate TPS optimization strategy at backend servers or improper load balancing scheme that cannot quickly recover an overload. Consequently, the performance of software-intensive system is suffered. Thus, in this paper, we propose a new DTPS that follows the collaborative round robin load balancing that has the effect of a double-edge sword. On the one hand, it effectively performs the load balancing (in case of overload situation) among available TPSs by a fast overload recovery procedure that decelerates the load on the overloaded TPSs up to their capacities and shifts the remaining load towards other gracefully running TPSs. And on the other hand, its robust load deceleration technique which is applied to an overloaded TPS sets an appropriate upper bound of thread pool size, because the pool size in each TPS is kept equal to the request rate on it, hence dynamically optimizes TPS. We evaluated the results of the proposed system against state of the art DTPSs by a client-server based simulator and found that our system outperformed by sustaining smaller response times.     

Architecture of Integrated Data Clustering Machine

Data clustering is a significant information retrieval technique in today’s data intensive society. Over the last few decades a vast variety of huge number of data clustering algorithms have been designed and implemented for all most all data types. The quality of results of cluster analysis mainly depends on the clustering algorithm used in the analysis. Architecture of a versatile, less user dependent, dynamic and scalable data clustering machine is presented. The machine selects for analysis, the best av...     

A one-pass algorithm for shape-preserving quadratic spline interpolation

Schumaker (1983) and McAllister and Roulier (1981) have proposed algorithms for shape-preserving interpolation using quadratic splines. The former requires the user to provide and perhaps to adjust estimates of the slope at the data points. Here we show that, for a particular slope estimation technique, the two methods are identical, and that in this case the Schumaker algorithm automatically generates shape-preserving interpolants. Furthermore, in case of convex data the slopes are improved iteratively to produce more visually pleasing curves.     

Performance of directly modulated DFB lasers in 10-Gb/s ASK, FSK,and DPSK lightwave systems

A comparison is presented of the performance of amplitude-shift-keying (ASK), frequency-shift keying (FSK), and differential-phase-shift-keying (DPSK) lightwave systems which operate at 10 Gb/s with directly modulated 1550-nm distributed feedback (DFB) laser transmitters and conventional 1310-nm dispersion-optimized fiber. Computer modeling techniques were used to accurately simulate the amplitude modulation response and the frequency modulation response of DBF lasers. The system performance is evaluated from simulated eye patterns for both direct and heterodyne detection. With the narrow-optical spectral widths of these signal formats, fiber chromatic dispersion limits up to 70 km were obtained for transmission at 1550-nm using conventional 1310-nm optimized fiber
