It is important for communication networks to possess the capability to overcome failures and provide survivable services. We address modeling and analysis of performability affected by both performance and availability of system components for a token ring network under failure and repair conditions. Stochastic reward nets (SRN) is an extension of stochastic Petri nets and provides compact modeling facilities for system analysis. In this paper, hierarchical SRN modeling techniques are used to overcome state largeness problem. The upper level model is used to compute availability and the lower level model captures the performance. And Normalized Throughput Loss (NTL) is obtained for the composite ring network for each node failures occurrence as a performability measure. One of the key contributions of this paper constitutes the Petri nets modeling techniques instead of complicate numerical analysis of Markov chains and easy way of performability analysis for a token ring network under SRN reward concepts.

The performance of a computer system depends on the system architecture and workload, and the high performance required in many applications can be achieved by the scalability of the system architecture and workload. This paper presents scalable workload, a performance metric of scalable speedup and hierarchical modeling for the scalable computer system as well as the development of the object-oriented simulator spmplC++ Which is an advanced C++ version of the discrete event-driven simulation environment smplE. In addition, this paper presents two examples of applying scalable speedup, hierarchical modeling and simulator smplC++ to analyze the performance effect of the sclcbility in a multiprocessor system and a network-based client/server system.

The radar tomographic imaging is based on the Radar Cross-Section "RCS" of the materials of a shape under examination and investigation. The RCS varies as the conductivity and permittivity of a target, where the target has a different material profile than other background objects in a scene. In this research paper, we use Hierarchical Performance Modeling "HPM" and a framework developed earlier to determine/spot bottleneck(s) for pattern recognition of materials using a combination of the Single Layer Perceptron (SLP) technique and tomographic images in radar systems. HPM provides mathematical equations which create Objective Functions "OFs" to find an average performance metric such as throughput or response time. Herein, response time is used as the performance metric and during the estimation of it, bottlenecks are found with the help of OFs. The obtained results indicate that processing images consumes around 90% of the execution time.

The growing demands for sustainable and high-performance construction materials necessitate a deep understanding of their physicochemical properties by that of these heterogeneities. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art hierarchical multiscale modeling approach aimed at predicting the intricate physicochemical characteristics of construction materials. Emphasizing the heterogeneity inherent in these materials, the review briefly introduces single-scale analyses, including the ab initio method, molecular dynamics, and micromechanics, through a scale-bridging technique. Herein, the limitations of these models are also overviewed by that of effectively scale-bridging methods of length or time scales. The hierarchical multiscale model demonstrates these physicochemical properties considering chemical reactions, material defects from nano to macro scale, microscopic properties, and their influence on macroscopic events. Thereby, hierarchical multiscale modeling can facilitate the efficient design and development of next-generation construction.

To obtain realistic performance measures for wireless networks, one should consider changes in performance due to failure related behavior. In performability analysis, simultaneous consideration is given to both pure performance and performance with failure measures. SRN is an extension of stochastic Petri nets and provides compact modeling facilities for system analysis. In this paper, a new methodology to model and analyze performability based on stochastic reward nets (SRN) is presented. Composite performance and availability SRN models for wireless handoff schemes are developed and then these models are decomposed hierarchically. The SRN models can yield measures of interest such as blocking and dropping probabilities. These measures are expressed in terms of the expected values of reward rate functions for SRNs. Numerical results show the accuracy of the hierarchical model. The key contribution of this paper constitutes the Petri nets modeling techniques instead of complicate numerical analysis of Markov chains and easy way of performance analysis for channel allocation under SRN reward concepts.

본 논문에서는 계층적 클러스터링과 GMM을 순차적으로 이용하여 최적의 파라미터를 추정하고 이를 뉴로-퍼지 모델의 초기 파리미터로 사용하여 모델의 성능 개선을 제안한다. 반복적인 시도 중 가장 좋은 파라미터를 선택하는 기존의 알고리즘 과 달리 계층적 클러스터링은 데이터들 간의 유클리디언 거리를 이용하여 클러스터를 생성하므로 반복적인 시도가 불필요하다. 또한 클러스터링 방법에 의해 퍼지 모델링을 행하므로 클러스터와 동일한 갯수의 적은 규칙을 갖는다. 제안된 방법의 유용함을 비선형 데이터인 Box-Jenkins의 가스로 예측 문제와 Sugeno의 비선형 시스템에 적용하여 이전의 연구보다 적은 규칙으로도 성능이 개선되는 것을 보였다.

본 연구는 자원기반관점을 기초로 고성과작업시스템-종업원성과-운영성과 간 관계를 실증적으로 검증하고자 하였다. 조직수준의 고성과작업시스템과 개인수준의 종업원 태도 간 실증분석을 위해 위계적 선형모형(hierarchical linear modeling)을 활용한 다수준분석을 실시하여 인과관계의 정확성을 높였다. 이를 위해, 제3차 인적자원기업패널(HCCP: Human Capital Corporate Panel) 데이터 가운데 316개 기업과 7,872명(팀장 923명 포함)의 응답자를 대상으로, 고성과작업시스템이 개인수준인 종업원성과에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다. 이후, 분석수준을 일치시키기 위해 개인수준(종업원성과)과 팀수준(운영성과)의 패널자료를 조직수준으로 집산(aggregation)하여 타당화 검증을 실시하고, 조직수준에서 매개효과를 검증하였다. 그 결과, 고성과작업시스템은 종업원성과(직무만족, 조직몰입, 신뢰)와 운영성과에 각각 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 종업원성과 개별변수의 매개효과 검증에서는 직무만족과 신뢰가 고성과작업시스템과 운영성과 간 관계를 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 결론에는 연구의 결과, 이론적 시사점 및 한계점을 제시하고 있다.

본 논문에서는 무선망에서 채널할당을 받은 호가 무선 패킷 데이터를 서비스하는 경우의 성능분석 수행을 위한 계층 모델을 제안한다. 제안된 계층 모델로는 상위계층으로 무선자원 관리를 위한 채널할당 모델을, 하위계층으로 에러발생을 고려한 패킷 재전송 프로토콜 모델을 고려하였으며 이들 모델은 모델링 도구인 SRN을 이용하여 각각 개발한다. 추계적 페트리 네트의 확장형인 SRN은 시스템 성능분석을 위한 간결한 모델링 기능을 제공해 주며 모델에 적절한 보상률(reward) 기능을 부여함으로써 원하는 성능지표를 구할 수 있다. 이들 두 계층간의 상호 연관된 매개변수의 값인 서비스 시간과 패킷 발생률은 고정점 반복순환(fixed-point iteration) 기법을 사용하여 구한다. 즉 상위계층의 호 서비스 시간은 한 호당 K개의 패킷전송을 완료할때 까지 소요되는 시간인 하위계층 모델의 지연시간으로 구할 수 있고, 하위계층 모델의 패킷 발사율은 상위계층의 새로운 호와 핸드오프 호의 발생률로부터 구할 수 있다.

Evaluation of the implementation and performance of a firm's green supply chain management (GSCM) is an ongoing process. Balanced scorecard is a multi-criteria evaluation concept that highlights implementation and performance measures. The literature on the framework is abundant literature but scarce on how to build a hierarchical framework under uncertainty with dependence relations. Hence, this study proposes a hybrid approach, which includes applied interpretive structural modeling to build a hierarchical structure and uses the analytic network process to analyze the dependence relations. Additionally, this study applies the fuzzy set theory to determine linguistic preferences. Twenty dependence criteria are evaluated for a GSCM implemented firm in Taiwan. The result shows that the financial aspect and life cycle assessment are the most important performance and weighted criteria.

DEVSim++ is a C++ based, object-oriented modeling/simulation environment which realizes the hierarchical, modular DEVS formalism for discrete event systems specification. The paper describes a methodology for performance modeling and analysis of an ATM-based network system within the DEVSim++ environment. The methodology develops performance models for the system using the DEVS framework and implement the models in C++. Performance indices measured are the length of queues located at connection of the system and cell waiting times with respect to QoS grades for a network bandwidth of 155 Mbps.
