Abstract for:Application of System Dynamics for Real-time Cloud Environment Monitoring and Management
System Dynamics is a perfect instrument for dealing with processes evolving in time and majority of such processes are about processing various kinds of entities and redistribution of different resources. At a glance, we may say that system dynamics models allow to predict in which state some system will come from its current state, based on set of know rules describing interactions between its components and initial parameters. Taking this assumption as a baseline, in this article we will discuss an approach we used for run-time monitoring, balancing and analysis of our data-center where cloud platform for System Dynamics modelling, called sdCloud, is deployed.
