Optimal grouping of components in a distributed system (EN)

Markopoulou, AP (EN)

Traditionally the performance of a distributed system or a telecommunications network is taken into account only in the last steps of its design and it is seen as a final improvement. Recent attempts to incorporate performance considerations in the mainstream design rely on the development of a functional model consisting of entities that must be optimally distributed over a network of physical nodes. The optimal allocation is environment sensitive and probable different environments must be taken into account. Functional entities that are likely to be grouped together in different environments compose the so-called network entities. In this paper the problem of optimally composing network entities is examined. Different variations of the problem have been studied. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. (EN)
