The large-scale dynamic cloud computing environment has raised great challenges for fault diagnosis in Web applications: First, fluctuating workloads cause traditional application models to change over time; second, modeling the behaviors of complex applications usually requires domain knowledge which is difficult to obtain; third, managing large-scale applications manually is impractical for operators...
JavaScript libraries, such as JQuery, are widely used in web applications. In these libraries' event delegation models, a DOM element's event handler is usually bound to its parent nodes. This makes it difficult for developers to figure out the user-defined event handlers of a specified DOM element. In this paper, we propose an approach that identifies the user-defined event handlers of DOM elements...
Virtualization greatly improves resource utilization in IaaS platforms, but it also introduces potential interference between virtual machines (VMs). For example, VMs may suffer from performance degradation, when they are located in one host and compete for sharing physical resources. Thus, how to efficiently monitor and quantify the VMs interference becomes a key challenge for IaaS providers. In...
For service-based applications which are composed of multiple independent third-parties, continuous monitoring is required to assure that runtime behavior of the systems complies with specified properties. However, most existing work only detects the violation while not consider how to enforce the properties so that the constraint can not be violated at runtime. To address this limitation, this paper...
Cloud computing is a new model and technology that leverage the efficient pooling of on-demand, self-managed virtual infrastructure. Virtualization packages the applications in the form of Virtual Machine (VM) and provides significant benefits by reconfiguring the VMs dynamically. VM reconfiguration is hard and complicated, and existing work addressed the problem with diverse objectives by answering...
Cloud computing provide scalability and high availability for web applications using such techniques as distributed caching and clustering. As one database offloading strategy, elastic caching platforms (ECPs) are introduced to speed up the performance or handle application state management with fault tolerance. Several cache strtegies for ECPs have been proposed, say replicated strategy, partitioned...
The performance of multi-service applications are known to be determined mainly by the interactions between workload and behaviors of the application. The change of workload can lead to dynamic service demands on system resources, and even cause dynamic bottleneck switches between services inside the application. In this paper, to profiling large-applications' behaviors, and help to locate the bottleneck...
Middleware sharing is one of the important resource sharing approaches which enables sharing of costs across a large pool of users. However, the shared Java middleware server easily causes interference on performance between concurrent user requests. A key requirement to an effective performance isolation is the knowledge of the resource consumption of the various kinds of use requests classified...
Runtime monitoring of Web service compositions has been widely acknowledged as a significant approach to understand and guarantee the quality of services. However, existing runtime monitoring solutions consider only the constraints on the sequence of messages exchanged between partner services and ignore the actual data contents inside the messages. As a result, it is difficult to monitor some dynamic...
Runtime monitoring of Web service compositions with WS-BPEL has been widely acknowledged as a significant approach to understand and guarantee the quality of services. However, most existing monitoring technologies only track patterns related to the execution of an individual process. As a result, the possible inconsistency failure caused by implicit interactions among concurrent process instances...
The execution of composite web services with WS-BPEL relies on externally autonomous Web services. This implies the need to constantly monitor the running behavior of the involved parties. Moreover, monitoring the execution of such processes is critical to enforce business policies and meet reliability goals. This paper proposes a stateful aspect extension to WS-BPEL, as a solution to support flexible...
