Abstract
ABSTRACT Software rejuvenation is a policy to counter the phenomenon of software ageing. However, how to implement software rejuvenation is still an important issue. In this paper, periodic impulse control is proposed as an effective tool to perform software rejuvenation and improve the availability of software system. First, we formulate the software rejuvenation system with periodic impulse by a group of coupled differential equations with impulsive action. Then the well-posedness of the system is demonstrated by using operator semigroup theory. At the end of the paper, numerical examples are shown to illustrate the dynamic behaviour of the system and the relationship between the system instantaneous availability and the impulsive indexes, including impulse interval and impulse strength, which yields that the system availability can be improved by adjusting the impulsive indexes.
期刊介绍:
Mathematical and Computer Modelling of Dynamical Systems (MCMDS) publishes high quality international research that presents new ideas and approaches in the derivation, simplification, and validation of models and sub-models of relevance to complex (real-world) dynamical systems.
The journal brings together engineers and scientists working in different areas of application and/or theory where researchers can learn about recent developments across engineering, environmental systems, and biotechnology amongst other fields. As MCMDS covers a wide range of application areas, papers aim to be accessible to readers who are not necessarily experts in the specific area of application.
MCMDS welcomes original articles on a range of topics including:
-methods of modelling and simulation-
automation of modelling-
qualitative and modular modelling-
data-based and learning-based modelling-
uncertainties and the effects of modelling errors on system performance-
application of modelling to complex real-world systems.
