    摘要: The exemplary embodiments of the invention provide computer programs, methods, apparatus and systems that describe techniques providing improved evaluation of business processes based on considerations such as throughput and/or parallelization. As a non-limiting example, such techniques may be useful for evaluating agreements between entities, such as service level agreements between a service provider and another entity (e.g., a supplier or customer of the service provider), for example. In one exemplary embodiment of the invention, a method includes: obtaining a workflow model having a plurality of atomic processes, each atomic process having a distribution of throughput; determining an overall distribution of throughput for the workflow model using the distributions of throughput of the atomic processes; and outputting a determination of whether an agreement relating to the workflow model is fit based on the determined overall distribution of throughput.

    摘要: Under the present invention, it is determined whether sufficient resources exist for deploying a platform dependent application on its specific “native” platform in a grid environment. If not, a platform dependent portion of the application is identified, and the application is split into the platform dependent portion and a platform independent portion. Thereafter, the platform dependent portion is deployed on its corresponding native platform, while the platform independent portion is deployed on another platform in the grid environment based on available resources. Interconnections between the two portions can then be automatically generated. This can include, for example, creating remote method invocation facade interfaces, creating remote method invocation-enabled facade classes, and building a remote method invocation server for the first platform.

    摘要: Under the present invention, a stability and updateability (SUP) ratio for a grid computing environment is generated. Thereafter, a size of a set (e.g., at least one) of scale free graphs for the grid computing environment is estimated. Then, based on at least one predetermined parameter such as a quantity of nodes in the grid computing environment, the set of scale free graphs is actually generated. Based on the set of scale free graphs a set of perturbed scale free graphs is generated. In one example, this may be accomplished using a preferential rewiring technique. This process is repeated for each of the monitoring and discovery services, which will yield at least two sets of perturbed scale free graphs. Using these sets of graphs, a set of monitoring and discovery service (MDS) topology graphs for the grid computing environment will be generated and deployed for optimization.

    摘要: Methods, apparatus and computer program products decompose a service process into service process operations; filter the service operations based on at least one pre-determined criterion; identify at least one different service process operation to be used to replace an existing service process operation; and replace the existing service process operation with the at least one different service process operation. The service process can be decomposed using specific service features derived from reference service processes. The pre-determined criterion used to filter the service operations can constitute a service level; a service category; or a service process feature. A service process feature describes core functionality of the service.
