Abstract

In this paper, we extend the classical result by Huang, Kintala, Kolettis and Fulton (1995), and in addition propose a modified stochastic model to determine the software rejuvenation schedule. More precisely, the software rejuvenation models are formulated via the semi-Markov processes, and the optimal software rejuvenation schedules which maximize the system availabilities are derived analytically for respective cases. Further, we develop nonparametric statistical algorithms to estimate the optimal software rejuvenation schedules, provided that the statistical complete (unsensored) sample data of failure times is given. In numerical examples, we examine asymptotic properties for the statistical estimation algorithms.

Software aging often affects the performance of software systems and eventually causes them to fail. A complementary approach to handle transient software failures due to the software aging is called software rejuvenation, and can be regarded as a ...
A Comprehensive Model for Software Rejuvenation

Recently, the phenomenon of software aging, one in which the state of the software system degrades with time, has been reported. This phenomenon, which may eventually lead to system performance degradation and/or crash/hang failure, is the result of ...
