Aeneas: real-time performance evaluation approach for distributed programs with reliability-constrains

A novel approach, based on the execution state of distributed programs, is proposed in this paper, called Aeneas. It is for the real-time performance analysis of distributed programs with reliability-constrains. In Aeneas, there are two important factors, the available data files and the transmission paths of each available data file. Some algorithms are designed to find all the transmission paths of each data file needed while the program executes, count the transmission time for each transmission path, then get the aggregate transmission time, calculate the fastest and the slowest response time of distributed programs with reliability-constrains. A representative case is analyzed, and the results show that it is an efficient way to evaluate the real-time performance of distributed programs with reliability-constrains.
