Comparing the use of bayesian networks and neural networks in response time modeling for service-oriented systems
Rui Zhang, Alan Bivens · 2007
The new paradigm of service-oriented computing facilitates easy construction of dynamic, complex distributed systems. Recent research has shown that machine learning methods can be a promising way to autonomously and accurately derive models to assist autonomic management software or humans in understanding system behaviors and making informed decisions. However, the efficacy of different machine learning techniques in describing various system behaviors and meeting distinct application needs has not been systematically understood. Such an understanding can prove crucial in management infrastructure design and implementation for service-oriented systems.
