A simulation study on the effectiveness of restart and rejuvenation to mitigate the effects of software ageing
Philipp Reinecke, Katinka Wolter · 2010
We study the effectiveness of client-side restart and server-side rejuvenation on a system that suffers from software ageing due to memory leaks. An implicit and an explicit model for software ageing are studied. We consider system and service unavailability as measures for the availability of the server.
