Abstract
The article presents a new approach to assessing the average response time of a cloud computing system and its dispersion. A fork-join system or a system with request splitting was chosen as a queuing model, and artificial neural networks were used as a method for estimating a variable of interest. The analysis showed that the estimates obtained were more accurate than those previously known. Besides, the proposed approach allows expanding the analysis of the cloud system to the case of a model with a non-Poisson input stream and non-exponential service time, as well as obtaining estimates for a larger number of performance indicators of the cloud system, which was not previously possible.
期刊介绍:
Advances in Systems Science and Applications (ASSA) is an international peer-reviewed open-source online academic journal. Its scope covers all major aspects of systems (and processes) analysis, modeling, simulation, and control, ranging from theoretical and methodological developments to a large variety of application areas. Survey articles and innovative results are also welcome. ASSA is aimed at the audience of scientists, engineers and researchers working in the framework of these problems. ASSA should be a platform on which researchers will be able to communicate and discuss both their specialized issues and interdisciplinary problems of systems analysis and its applications in science and industry, including data science, artificial intelligence, material science, manufacturing, transportation, power and energy, ecology, corporate management, public governance, finance, and many others.
