Abstract
The dependability of a complex distributed system needs to be assured against the several conditions, namely states, in which it can operate. Generating a workload able to cover a desired target state of a distributed system is still a difficult task, since the relationship between the workload and states is nontrivial due to system complexity and non-deterministic factors. This work discusses our ongoing work on a state-driven workload generation approach for distributed systems, based on an evolutionary algorithm, and its preliminary implementation for testing a fault-tolerant distributed system for flight data processing. ?????? 2013 Springer-Verlag.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
