R-Capriccio: A Capacity Planning and Anomaly Detection Tool for Enterprise Services with Live Workloads
HPL-2007-87 R-Capriccio: A Capacity Planning and Anomaly Detection Tool for Enterprise Services with Live Workloads - Zhang, Qi; Cherkasova, Lucy; Matthews, Guy; Greene, Wayne; Smirni, Evgenia
Keyword(s): three-tier-applications; workload analysis; production environment; regression; transaction cost; capacity planning; performance modeling
Abstract: As the complexity of IT systems increases, performance management and capacity planning become the largest and most difficult expenses to control. New methodologies and modeling techniques that explain large-system behavior and help predict their future performance are now needed to effectively tack ...

Revisiting Probabilistic Models for Clustering with Pair-wise Constraints
HPL-2007-79 Revisiting Probabilistic Models for Clustering with Pair-wise Constraints - Nelson, Blaine; Cohen, Ira
Keyword(s): No keywords available.
Abstract: We revisit recently proposed algorithms for probabilistic clustering with pair-wise constraints between data points. We evaluate and compare existing techniques in terms of robustness to misspecified constraints. We show that the technique that strictly enforces the given constraints, namely the chu ...

MagiXen: Combining Binary Translation and Virtualization
HPL-2007-77 MagiXen: Combining Binary Translation and Virtualization - Chapman, Matthew; Magenheimer, Daniel J.; Ranganathan, Parthasarathy
Keyword(s): virtualization; dynamic binary translation; hypervisor; Xen Itanium; virtual appliances; virtual machine monitors
Abstract: Virtualization is emerging as an important technology in future systems, providing an extra layer of abstraction between the hardware and operating system. Previous work on virtualization has focused on the partitioning, isolation, and encapsulation features of virtual machines and their use for dif ...

Modelling danger and anergy in artificial immune systems
HPL-2007-74 Modelling danger and anergy in artificial immune systems - Cayzer, Steve; Sullivan, Julie
Keyword(s): artificial immune systems; danger theory; anergy; AIS; immune systems; autoimmune disease; false positives
Abstract: Artificial Immune Systems are engineering systems which have been inspired from the functioning of the biological immune system. We present an immune system model which incorporates two biologically motivated mechanisms to protect against autoimmune reactions, or false positives. The first, anergy, ...

Cost-aware Scheduling for Heterogeneous Enterprise Machines (CASH’EM)
HPL-2007-63 Cost-aware Scheduling for Heterogeneous Enterprise Machines (CASH'EM) - Burge, Jennifer; Ranganathan, Partha; Wiener, Janet L.
Keyword(s): power scheduling; data centers; autonomic computing
Abstract: Data centers contain heterogeneous sets of machines. Some machines are faster and some - often the same ones - consume more energy and cost more to operate. The data center coordinator must decide how to allocate these machines to multiple applications of potentially many customers, each of ...
