CINECA IRIS Institutional Research Information System
IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishWe consider a discrete time process algebra capable of (i) modeling processes with different probabilistic advancing speeds (mean number of actions executed per time unit), and (ii) expressing probabilistic external/internal choices and multiway synchronization. We show that, when evaluating steady state based performance measures expressed by associating rewards with actions, such a probabilistic approach provides an exact solution even if advancing speeds are considered not to be probabilistic (i.e. actions of different processes have a different exact duration), without incurring in the state space explosion problem which arises with an intuitive application of a standard synchronous approach. We then present a case study on multi-path routing showing the expressiveness of our calculus and that it makes it particularly easy to produce scalable specifications.

| Abstract: | We consider a discrete time process algebra capable of (i) modeling processes with different probabilistic advancing speeds (mean number of actions executed per time unit), and (ii) expressing probabilistic external/internal choices and multiway synchronization. We show that, when evaluating steady state based performance measures expressed by associating rewards with actions, such a probabilistic approach provides an exact solution even if advancing speeds are considered not to be probabilistic (i.e. actions of different processes have a different exact duration), without incurring in the state space explosion problem which arises with an intuitive application of a standard synchronous approach. We then present a case study on multi-path routing showing the expressiveness of our calculus and that it makes it particularly easy to produce scalable specifications. |
