Abstract

A general description of the Virtual Storage Access Method (VSAM) is followed by a qualitative discussion of performance expectations. VSAM data-set design parameters are discussed with respect to performance tradeoffs. Analytic techniques are developed for relating some of the VSAM performance sensitivities to data set design parameters.

Fine-Tuning algorithm parameters using the design of experiments approach
LION'05: Proceedings of the 5th international conference on Learning and Intelligent Optimization

Optimizing parameter settings is an important task in algorithm design. Several automated parameter tuning procedures/configurators have been proposed in the literature, most of which work effectively when given a good initial range for the parameter ...
