Abstract

In this talk I shall present a story of working towards my PhD thesis whilst interacting with TIME -EACM project team.

I shall introduce key targets striven for by this project and position my own research goals within there. The talk will describe my approach to component-level workload characterisation given the TIME message-oriented middleware at its very different stages of design and implementation. I shall discuss challenges encountered on this way and present solutions resulted from my collaboration with colleagues in the Lab. This presentation will report key amendments I have done to the SBUS middleware code. These are to introduce QoS-awareness in order to duly complete a workload model and suitably proceed on to developing a performance model.

The talk will conclude with survey and analysis of future goals to be achieved in both short-term and long-term run.
